The Municipality of Ilhas (Portuguese: Concelho das Ilhas, lit. 'Municipality of the Islands') was one of the two municipalities of Macau, along with the Municipality of Macau. Its organs were the Municipal Council of Ilhas (Câmara Municipal das Ilhas) and the Municipal Assembly of Ilhas (Assembleia Municipal das Ilhas).
Following the handover of Macau to China on 20 December 1999, they were renamed as Provisional Municipal Council of Ilhas (Câmara Municipal das Ilhas Provisória) and the Provisional Municipal Assembly of Ilhas (Assembleia Municipal das Ilhas Provisória).[1] The municipality along with the institutions were formally abolished on 31 December 2001 and replaced by the Civic and Municipal Affairs Bureau the following day.[2]
