1 Public Accountability under the Local Government System National Reconstruction Bureau Pakistan 1 1
2 PUBLIC ACCOUNTABILITY AND GOVERNANCE CULTURE 1. Genesis of citizen state relations under colonialism and the importance of history. 2. Ownership of the institutional structure vesting in the bureaucracy and not the political leadership. 3. Resultantly, the system is based on pleading for favours rather than exercising rights. 4. Dichotomy of local custom, folk law, and moral and ethical standards derived from hereditary tribal and community structures and the common law derived from European experience. Contd 2
3 PUBLIC ACCOUNTABILITY & GOVERNANCE CULTURE 5. The long and arduous process of institutional development derived from a local experience and predicated on a local cumulative historical psyche didn t take place and political development was virtually suspended. 6. Democracy prompts the reinvigoration and re-establishment of traditional rules and ethical standards and morality that are required to be serviced by the bureaucracy through patronage. 7. In order to preserve the institutional tradition (moral, ethical structure) bureaucracy invents mechanisms to prevent intervention in its affairs purporting merit and fair play. 8. For this they need immunity from retribution this promotes insulation and secrecy finally impunity. Contd 3
4 PUBLIC ACCOUNTABILITY & GOVERNANCE CULTURE 9. The solution: Shift the ownership of the institutional structure from the bureaucracy to fully and squarely rest on the shoulders of the elected representatives at the local level. 10. This was accomplished by unbundling the colonial officer king model of governance creating checks and balances and making the local administration of government answerable to the elected representatives. 11. This was accompanied by devolution of administration, assignment of functions, and distribution of financial resources. 12. New institutions were created under law to manage various aspects of embedding accountability. Contd 4
