Assembly of Madrid, Regional parliament in Vallecas district, Madrid, Spain.
The Assembly of Madrid is the regional parliament of the autonomous community of Madrid, meeting in a functional building located in the Vallecas district. The structure includes a plenary chamber, offices and work areas for legislative activities.
Following approval of the autonomy statute for Madrid, the parliament began work on June 8, 1983. The institution embodies regional self-governance established after Spain's transition to democracy.
The deputies represent the entire region as a single constituency, without division into districts or municipalities. Citizens can attend plenary sessions and witness debates on regional laws and budget plans.
Access to the building is available via telephone (34 91) 390 60 00, and citizens can inquire about public sessions. The facilities include security screenings, so allow extra time for entry.
The system without regional constituencies means each vote affects the entire list of deputies, not just a local candidate. Smaller parties need at least 5 percent of votes to gain seats.
