# What do the Islas Baleares (Balearic Islands) have instead of diputaciones (provincial councils)?

Question 1022 · Task 1 · Government, legislation and civic participation · CCSE 2026

**In Spanish, as in the exam:** ¿Qué hay en las Islas Baleares, en vez de diputaciones?

- a) Cabildos. (Cabildos (island councils of the Canary Islands).)
- b) Consejos insulares. (Consejos insulares (island councils).) · Right answer
- c) Centros de diputados. (Centros de diputados (deputies' centres).)

**Right answer:** b) Consejos insulares.

## Why

In the Balearic Islands each island has its consejo insular, which has functions similar to those of a provincial council. Cabildos exist in the Islas Canarias (Canary Islands), not in the Balearic Islands.
