National Assembly (Panama)
Template:Update Template:Expand Spanish Template:Short description Template:Infobox legislature Template:Sidebar with collapsible lists The National Assembly of Panama (Template:Langx), formerly the Legislative Assembly of Panama (Asamblea Legislativa de Panamá), is the legislative branch of the government of the Republic of Panama.
It is a unicameral legislature, currently made up of 71 members, who serve five-year terms. Legislators from outlying rural districts are chosen by a first past the post method, while districts located in more populous towns and cities elect multiple legislators by means of a proportion-based formula. Panama's legislative elections are held simultaneous with its presidential and local elections.
Panama also returns a delegation of 20 deputies to the supranational Central American Parliament.
