2 Size of government Much more important than the size of government is its quality Francis Fukuyama: Political Order and Political Decay (2014).

4 Scope and structure of government Distribution of competences between government levels shows that for most areas and countries (CEE region does not have specific position): legislation is concentrated at the central level. regulation and funding the picture is more mixed, with public utilities, education, police, social policy, taxes, and environmental protection being commonly also under the responsibility of regional or local governments provision is largely shared among the different levels of government and local governments participate in the provision of services mostly in the areas of public utilities, social policy, environmental protection, education, health and police (fragmentation issue).

7 Coordination of administrative reform (CEE) Bulgaria - Consultative council at the Council of ministers Croatia - Ministry of Public Administration and Ministry of Finance (Ministry of Regional Development when EU funds involved) Czech Republic - Ministry of the Interior Estonia - mostly Ministry of Finance and Government Office (weak coordinating role, fragmented system) Hungary - Prime Minister s Office and State Reform Committee

8 Coordination of administrative reform (CEE) Latvia - State Chancellery and Ministry of Regional Development and Environmental Protection for territorial reform Lithuania - Ministry of the Interior in cooperation with Office of Government Poland - The Chancellery of Prime Minister Romania - Ministry for Regional Development, Administration and European Funds Slovakia - Ministry of Interior Slovenia Ministry of Public Administration

10 Civil service Performance appraisal systems - mandatory in all EU Member States with the exception of Austria. Greece, Luxembourg, Slovakia and Spain have introduced this instrument only recently and have not yet fully implemented this tool. Five out of the 27 EU MS (Bulgaria, Estonia, the Netherlands, Romania and Spain) do not have any sanction mechanisms in place if performance appraisal was not undertaken. Performance related pay (PRP) is rather common in the EU Member States albeit there are still some countries where PRP has not been introduced yet: Austria, Belgium, Croatia, Cyprus, Denmark, Luxembourg and Romania.

11 Civil service Merit versus patronage: Merit: BE, CY, DE, DK, EE, FI, FR, IE, MT, SE, UK Patronage: BG, CZ, EL, ES, HR, HU, PT, PL, RO, SI, SK
