politics and government of
Veneto

The Council, which has its seat at Palazzo Ferro Fini in Venice, was first elected in 1970, when ordinary regions were established, twenty-two years after the Italian Constitution envisioned them in 1948.

Composition

The Regional Council of Veneto (Consiglio Regionale del Veneto) is composed of 51 members. 49 councillors are elected in provincial constituencies by proportional representation using the largest remainder method with a Droop quota and open lists, while the remaining two are the elected President and the candidate for President who comes second. The winning coalition wins a bonus of seats in order to make sure the elected President has a majority in the Council.[1][2][3]

The Council is elected for a five-year term, but, if the President suffers a vote of no confidence, resigns or dies, under the simul stabunt, simul cadent (literally they will stand together or they will fall together) clause introduced in the Italian Constitution in 1999 and later incorporate in the Statute of Veneto, also the Council is dissolved and an early election is called.[4]

The current President of the Council is Roberto Ciambetti of Liga Veneta–Lega Nord.

    Location and 2019 flooding

    The Council meets in the Palazzo Ferro Fini, which is located along the Grand Canal of Venice.[6]

    The Council flooded for the first time ever during the 2019 Venice floods.[7] On November 12, the Council "rejected a number of policy amendments designed to tackle climate change." Just minutes later, at around 10 PM, "flood waters rushed into the council chambers."[6]
