Linking supply and demand side at sub-national level (1)

Focus 1: Responsive planning and budgeting for public service delivery

Support to gender-responsive budgeting and planning and budgeting for

minimum service standards at local level takes into account the basic needs of the

people in a district/municipality and helps provide citizen-oriented public services.

Focus 2: Social accountability mechanisms

The facilitation of customer-complaint surveys and the Regulation of the

Minister for Administrative Reform 13/2009 on “Public Service Quality Improvement

with Public Participation” helps users to voice their (dis)satisfaction with certain public

services (providers). A service contract and specific recommendations serve to build the

service provider’s commitment and help monitor service improvement.

Linking supply and demand side at sub-national level (2)

Focus 3: Strengthening the role of provincial governments

Strengthening the role of the province in budget oversight, especially with regard

to planning and budgeting for minimum service standards, but also in facilitating

inter-local government cooperation helps to ensure a sufficient quality and scope

of public services in districts and municipalities.

Focus 4: Application of bureaucratic reform mechanisms 

Workshops and seminars on the Freedom of Information Law brought together

local government and civil society actors to jointly identify the possibilities of the law

for strengthening participatory planning and budgeting.
