==Composition==
==Composition==
The Regional Council of Piedmont was originally composed of 60 regional councillors. Following the decree-law n. 138 of 13 August 2011, the number of regional councillors was reduced to 50, with an additional seat reserved for the President of the Region.
The Regional Council of Piedmont is composed of 51 members, of which 49 are elected in provincial constituencies with [[proportional representation]], one is for the candidate for President who comes second, who usually becomes the leader of the opposition in the Council, and one is for the elected President.

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 vel simul cadent'' clause (introduced in 1999), also the Council will be dissolved and there will be a snap election.
