Monaco's National Council
Monaco’s National Council is the principality's legislative body, composed of 24 members elected by citizens for five-year terms. It reviews and approves laws, budgets, and policies, serving as a key link between the government and residents. The Council debates proposals, works with the Prince of Monaco, and ensures government accountability. Although the Prince holds significant executive power, the National Council plays an essential role in shaping legislation and representing the people's interests within Monaco's constitutional framework.
