Mateh Binyamin Regional Council

Mateh Binyamin Regional Council (, Mo'atza Azorit Mateh Binyamin) is a regional council covering 42 Israeli settlements in the southern Samarian hills of the West Bank. The seat of the council is Psagot. The council is named for the ancient Israelite tribe of Benjamin, whose territory roughly corresponds to that of the council.
In November 2007, Avi Roeh was elected head of the council. The previous head, Pinchas Wallerstein stepped down after being in the position for 28 years.
