The new Statute of Autonomy of the Canary Islands has introduced a serie of interesting features acording to administrative law. The feature that this article focuses is the legal consideration of La Graciosa as an “island.” This new status must be studied in order to understand how the organisational framework of La Graciosa fits in a territorial context as peculiar as the Canary Islands. This requires a study of the system of representation and government of this island in order to equate its new status with the transfer of the appropriate autonomy which should assist it. This autonomy should be materialised in the institutionalisation of the corresponding local government administrations or the reorganisation of its relations with its other administrative levels as the Council of the neighbouring Island of Lanzarote, the Canary Islands Government, and that of the State.
