The Aktobe Regional Mäslihat (Kazakh: Ақтөбе облыстық мәслихаты, romanized: Aqtöbe oblystyq mäslihaty) is a local unicameral legislature of the Aktobe Region which was formed in 1993. Since 2021, all members of the mäslihat have been elected through party-list proportional representation. The Regional Mäslihat is currently chaired by Secretary Amangeldi Nugmanov (Nur Otan).
After the adoption of the law on the early termination of the powers of local Councils of People's Deputies, the law "On local representative and executive bodies of the Republic of Kazakhstan" was adopted on 10 December 1993 No. 2578-XII, in which the representative body of the population of the region was formed into a mäslihat. Local representative bodies were chosen to be elected by the population of the corresponding administrative-territorial units for a period of 5 years in which the first ones were held on 7 March 1994 where 37 members were elected.[1]
On 10 October 1999, only 31 members were elected to the second convocation with the term of office for 4 years.[1]
In the 2021 Aktobe regional election, 33 members of the mäslihat were elected on the basis of proportional representation with the Nur Otan winning majority of 27 seats.[2]
