The National Assembly for Wales has how many members?

The number of members is 60. The Welsh legislature uses a mixed electoral system: 40 constituencies each elect one member by first-past-the-post, and 20 regional members are added from party lists to balance representation. Together they total 60, which is why that is the correct count. The other numbers don’t fit because they don’t reflect the full size of the body—40 would only be the constituency seats, while 75 and 50 are not the listed total.
