The Provincial Deputation of Tarragona is the governing and administrative body of the province of Tarragona, autonomous community of Catalonia, Spain.
The plenary is made up of members elected by an indirect election, which are based on the results in the municipal elections of the province. Since 2019, Noemí Llauradó i Sans has been the president of the deputation.
It was established for the first time, in 1822, as a Provincial Council, of which Jacobo Gil de Avalle was president. Later, and in compliance with the Royal Decree of September 25, 1835, the civil governor of the province called elections, and the new provincial constitution was published in the "Official Gazette" of January 26, 1836. It met for first time on March 2 following. Over time, the new Tarragona corporation expanded its powers and developed an ever greater operational capacity.
Currently, according to article 91 of the Statute of Autonomy of Catalonia of 2006, the town councils will replace the provincial councils. According to the project of the Law on the Vegetation Organization of Catalonia, the Provincial Council of Tarragona should be replaced by the Council of Vegueria del Camp de Tarragona and the Council of the Vegueria of the Terres de l'Ebre.

History The current organizational model, with modifications, dates back to 1836, when the first provincial corporation was formed. After the decree of September 1835, it was decided to postpone the date of elections in the province, due to the situation of anticlerical revolt and the action of Carlist guerrillas in the area.
