Data regarding the decentralization of competences of municipalities is being updated. We are working to ensure that information is available as soon as possible.
Decentralization of powers
Proximity to populations is essential for solving people's real problems on a daily basis. Knowing the needs and having the ability to intervene in their resolution in an agile and uncomplicated way is one of the most important missions of the Municipalities.
For this, it is necessary that each Municipality has at its disposal not only the necessary resources but also the institutional attribution of the respective responsibilities. In light of the current model of decentralization of powers from the Central Administration to the Municipalities, each of the Municipalities entrusted with providing services to citizens in a very wide range of fields.
Areas of decentralization of powers
Accepted powers
- Health
- Education
- Citizen services
- Assets
- Justice
- Communication routes
- Inland waterway transport
- Civil protection
- Social action
- Neighbourhood policing
- Fire safety
- Public car parking
- Gambling
- Afforestation and reforestation
- Fire brigade associations
Non-applicable powers
- Housing
- Culture
- Port areas
- Beaches
- Co-management of protected areas
Once the powers relating to Health, Culture and Communications have been accepted, an agreement needs to be signed setting out the terms of the transfer of powers.
In Social action, the deadline given for the municipalities to pronounce themselves on the figures is still past, which is why this area has not been considered when calculating the acceptance of powers.
