Comarcas Of Andalusia
In Andalusia, comarcas have no defined administrative powers; many municipalities have gathered together to form ''mancomunidades'' in order to provide basic services, but those do not always coincide with the traditional ''comarcas''. The current (2007) Statute of Autonomy of Andalusia, unlike its 1981 predecessor, allows for the establishment and regulation of official ''comarcas'' under its Title III, Article 97, which defines the significance of ''comarcas'' and sets the basis for future legislation in this area. In 2003, the Council of Tourism and Sports of the Regional Government of Andalusia The Regional Government of Andalusia ( es, Junta de Andalucía) is the government of the Autonomous Community of Andalusia.
