Members of the Regional Council of Veneto, 2010–2015

The IX Legislature of the Regional Council of Veneto, the legislative assembly of Veneto, was inaugurated in April 2010, following the 2010 regional election, and ended in April 2015. Of the 60 members, 53 were elected in provincial constituencies with proportional representation with a further 6 returned from the so-called "regional list" of the elected President of Veneto, including the President himself, and the candidate for President who came second.

Clodovaldo Ruffato (The People of Freedom, later New Centre-Right) was the President of the Council for the entire term, while Luca Zaia (Liga Veneta–Lega Nord) served as President of Veneto at the head of his first government.

Composition
Seven parties plus a one-member group formed by Giuseppe Bortolussi (the defeated centre-left candidate) were represented in the Council at the start of the term. The largest party in the Council was Liga Veneta with twenty seats, a third of the total. At the end of the term, the groups were sixteen, four of which formed for technical purposes as every group could validate the slates of two lists for the regional election; these included "Civic Veneto", "Zaia President", "Tosi List for Veneto" and "Family–Pensioners".
