Local Government Law

The operation of first- and second-level local government bodies (municipalities and regions) is governed by a set of rules based on constitutional provisions (Article 102) and establish the authority of local government bodies to administer local affairs and their administrative and financial autonomy. Among the legal issues of concern in this sector are the delegation of powers by the state, the review of the legality of local government actions, the establishment and operation of local government legal entities, the decision-making process by elected bodies, the financial management of local authorities, the disciplinary liability of elected officials, and the exercise of delegated state powers.
