It’s usually accepted that the availability of public providers to residents can’t be left totally to the market. Actually, direct authorities management over public administration with regard to public providers is kind of inevitable. The problem is who ought to present for these public services–state administration or self-governing bodies–and at what level–local, regional, or central.
The current scenario in Albania is that the central authorities instantly, or by way of district and regional workplaces, supplies ultimately of 2006 for about 70 p.c of all public providers to residents. Funding choices about these providers are made solely on the central stage; the district and regional workplaces haven’t any important resolution making energy or affect concerning funding quantities or locations. Moreover, regional self-governing our bodies aren’t but operational, and native self-governing our bodies are very restricted of their capability to make the required coverage and funds choices on main public providers reminiscent of schooling, social care, well being providers, tradition, and transportation.
An necessary precondition for the rationalization of public administration is speedy completion of the property transformation course of and switch of the state’s duties for almost all of financial actions to the personal sector, and partly to the municipalities, as follows:
o forestry: the state + switch to municipal possession,
o agriculture: privatization + switch to municipal possession,
o transportation: the state + regional self-governing our bodies,
o well being care: the state + municipal and regional self-governing our bodies,
o schooling: the state + municipal and regional self-governing our bodies,
o tradition: self-government + the state Public Finance Institute,
o recreation: the state + self-government,
o telecommunications: privatization + state participation,
o highway community: native and regional self-governing our bodies + the state
o management of water provides: native self-governing our bodies + the state.
The intention is:
o to lower the diploma of provision of personal property by the general public sector,
o to restrict interference of public administration with personal properties,
o to lower the working prices of state administrative our bodies, and
o to find out the powers and competencies of state administration and self-governing our bodies at their respective ranges.
