Created under the Law of Cabildos of 1912,[1] the cabildos insulares took over powers ascribed to the provincial councils.[2]Cabildos exercise a level of authority between those of their province and their autonomous communities in matters of health, environment, culture, sports, industry, roads, drinking water and irrigation, hunting and fishing licensing, museums, beaches, public transportation and land organization. Cabildos can impose fuel taxes.
