INSIGHTS FROM OECD PUBLIC GOVERNANCE REVIEWS 6

Public Governance Reviews (PGRs) A 360-degree diagnostic of government performance, including in-depth analysis, actionable recommendations and implementation support Supporting public administration reform in a number of EU countries –Comprehensive reviews of public governance in Ireland (2008), Finland (2010), Estonia (2011), Slovenia (2012), Poland (2013) –Reviews of selected governance issues in France (2012) and Greece ( ) –On-going work in the Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovakia and Spain 7

The Strategic State A strategic state matters for growth and well-being –Long-term vision, foresight and agility –Leadership and stewardship from the centre –Integrity and transparency –Institutional strength and networks –Inclusive and effective processes –Implementation in support of real outcomes and impact for the economy and society All the building blocks of a strategic state can relate to the territorial administration—focus on: –Institutional aspects –Implementation/service delivery aspects 8

Evolving institutional role Transferring powers and responsibilities to local self- government  monitoring and oversight role of the territorial administration –Finland: reduction in the number and responsibilities of state provincial offices and granting of operational and economic independence to municipalities (1990s) –Poland: decentralisation reform assigning important responsibilities for economic development and service delivery to municipalities, provinces and regions ( ) Broadening and deepening the structure and responsibilities of the territorial administration –Hungary: establishment of district offices and reform of the local government system (2010- ) –Slovenia: establishment of administrative units taken over state functions performed by municipalities (1995) 9

On the front line in service delivery Increased attention for improving access to administrative services through one-stop shops –France: Points publics and Plates-formes de Services Publics (2000s) –Hungary: District Offices (2013- ) –Slovakia: KAMO Offices (2012- ) Streamlining back-office structures –France: key tax functions consolidated into a single Public Finances Directorate (2008) –Hungary: establishment of the Office of Public Administration and Justice as the key interface between central and deconcentrated levels (2011- ) –Slovakia: consolidating local state administration offices and establishment of regional and district support offices (2012- ) 10

LESSONS AND NEXT STEPS 11

Emerging lessons Evolving structures and responsibilities of the territorial administration –One size does not fit all –Important to consider the relationship with local self- government to ensure synergies and co-operation –Key to ensure vertical and horizontal co-operation within the central administration Key role of the territorial administration in delivering services to citizens and businesses –Human and financial resources need to support tasks and responsibilities –Front-line services and back-office structures need to be aligned to ensure efficiency and effectiveness –Administrative simplification and e-government can support reform 12

OECD on-going and future work Deepening the understanding of the structures and roles of the territorial administration across countries –Data collection and analysis –Functional reviews Supporting in-country territorial administration reform through in-depth analysis, policy dialogue, sharing of international experience –One-stop shops –Administrative simplification –Human resources management –E-government –Integrity and transparency 13
