Region Skåne is the County Council of Scania County in Sweden. Region Skåne (formally ''Skåne läns landsting'') was created on January 1, 1999, by the amalgamation of the County councils of Malmöhus County and Kristianstad County and some of the tasks handled by Malmö Municipality. The county council assembly is the highest political body in the region and its members are elected by the Scanians themselves, as opposed to the County Administrative Board (''länsstyrelsen'') that guards the interest of the state in the region under the chairmanship of the county governor. The regional council's main responsibility is for the public healthcare system, public transport and development within the region, which includes co-ordination of development of commerce, communication, culture and collaboration with other regions both in and outside of Sweden. By devolution the newly formed regional council assumed some power from the Skåne County Administrative Board, the state authority in Skåne County. Before Region Skåne was formed in 1999 on a trial basis, the regional development was the responsibility of a Regional Association, comprising the 33 municipalities together with the then current health services principals, namely the Kristianstad and Malmöhus county councils and the Health Services authority in the City of Malmö.〔Region Skåne.

The executive body of the Scania Regional Council is the Regional Executive Committee (''regionstyrelsen'').
