Mushi, Eleuter G. Legal framework central-local government administrative relationship A research paper submitted to the Uongozi Journal of Management and Development Dynamics Vol. 26(1) (2015) This article examines the implication of the present legal framework of central-local government administrative relationship on the autonomy of Local Government Authorities (LGAs) in Tanzania. The focus is on the power of LGAs over their personnel, fiscal matters and their own priorities. Both primary and secondary data were collected and analyzed for the conclusions made in this article. It is argued in the article that, despite the amendments which have been made in the constitution and in some other laws enacted by the Parliament; the current legal framework of central-local government administrative relationship is still fuzzy, centralistic and unsupportive of local government autonomy. There is no provision in the Constitution on central-local government administrative relationship from which the Parliament can proceed to enact a law to regulate such relationship. As a result, there are so many laws enacted by Parliament with loopholes that give room to the central government to frequently meddle with the autonomy of LGAs in the exercise of their powers and in carrying out their statutory functions. It is therefore recommended that the Constitution of the United Republic of Tanzania, 1977 should be amended to provide for central-local government administrative relationship and a safeguard against central government interference with local government Private 2024-04-17T09:58:26Z 2024-04-17T09:58:26Z 2015 Article Chicago 2619-8665 ajol-file-journals_720_articles_251652_64bf75a0a3a98. https://scholar.mzumbe.ac.tz/handle/123456789/654 en application/pdf Uongozi Journal of Management and Development Dyanamics |
