disagree  Nikki Graham: It's a ministry in the government of Andalusia, not a council of a board. The state has a government and all the autonomous communities have governments too with consejerias (ministries)

  -> I disagree, Spain has Ministerios which would be translated as Ministries
disagree  Andy Watkinson: You are obviously unfamiliar with the administrative structure of Spain

Regional Ministry of Innovation, Science and Business (Autonomous Government of Andalusia)


Explanation:
I would choose regional ministry as Andalusia enjoys a high level of autonomy and therefore it really is more than just a 'council', but not quite as high as a full 'ministry' which would be best used at the national level.
