Show answer and explanation

✓ El presidente y los consejeros

The government of a comunidad autónoma (region with self-government), called the consejo de gobierno, is formed by the president of the comunidad and the consejeros (regional ministers). Each consejero runs an area, such as health or education. In the Government of Spain, on the other hand, there are ministers, and in the ayuntamiento (town council), councillors. Keep the three levels clear: ministers in Spain, consejeros in the comunidad and councillors in the municipality.
