Greenland Provincial Council

The Greenland Provincial Council (Danish: Grønlands Landsråd) was the provincial government of Greenland between 1950, when it was formed from the union of the earlier North and South Greenland Provincial Councils, and 1 May 1979, when it was replaced by the Greenland Home Rule Government and its Parliament (Greenlandic: Kalaallit Nunaanni Inatsisartut; Danish: Grønlands Landsting).

The Provincial Council had thirteen members[1] and was presided over by a royally-appointed Governor (Landshevding), assisted by an interpreter.[2]
