decentralization towards national development”, on the Ghanaian Times You can

Abstract:
Decentralization
has to a large extend become an indispensable tool used by many countries to
promote decision making and attain socio-economic and political development.
This basically
involves the devolution or delegation by central or national government of
precise functions, with all of the administrative, political and economic
attributes that these entail, to local governments, which are independent of
the centre and sovereign within a legally regime.
Consequently,
Ghana’s decentralization policy, which is backed by local government
Act-1993(Act 462), is aimed at promoting people’s participation and ownership of
the system of government by shifting the process of governance from command to
consultation processes, and by moving power, authority and functions,
competence and resources to the district level.
