Autonomous Parliament is the usual colloquial name given in Spain to the legislative power in each autonomous community. The autonomous cities of Ceuta and Melilla have assemblies without their own legislative capacity. The name in each community is established by the respective statutes of autonomy and depending on the community, the autonomous parliament is known as an assembly, courts or parliament. The 1978 Spanish Constitution refers to them as "assemblies" or "legislative assemblies" (for example, in article 152 [1]).

Title VIII of the Spanish Constitution regulates the executive, legislative and judicial powers in each community. Although the judicial system is not specific to the community, it is unique for all of Spain.[1]

In some autonomous communities, other subnational parliaments at a higher level than the municipality but lower than the autonomous community exist, such as the General Meetings of the Basque Country, the island Councils of the Balearic Islands, the Insular cabildos of the Canary Islands or the General Council of Aran. However, this parliaments are not considered as autonomous parliaments.
