How many members does the Welsh Assembly have?

Think of how the Welsh Assembly is laid out. It uses a mixed-member system with seats from both constituencies and regional lists. There are 40 constituency seats and 20 regional seats, totaling 60 Assembly Members. That’s why 60 is the correct total. (Note: reforms in 2020 later increased the number to 80, but historically the standard count was 60.)
