Abstract:
<p> This study examined the impact of fiscal decentralization on quality financial reporting at the local government level in Ghana. The study is important because it provides development partners with the assurance that Metropolitan, Municipal, and District Assemblies (MMDAs) funds are used for their intended purposes. The study was based on the theory of local public expenditures, which posits that fiscal decentralization may enhance local capacities for service delivery. The key research question examined the extent to which fiscal decentralization has influenced quality financial reporting

Abstract:
The concept of participation seems to reflect in most development programmes that involve people at the grassroots level. In Ghana, the introduction of the decentralization programme in the late 1980s that aimed at promoting effective, comprehensive and rapid development, more especially in the rural areas also adopted participatory approach. The approach led to the introductory of district assembly system which was to enhance the involvement of people at the grassroots in participatory activities. However, since the introduction of the decentralisation system to promote grassroots level parti

Abstract:
This thesis examines the implementation of fiscal decentralization in Ghana, originally known as the Gold Coast in West Africa. It focuses on the Government of Ghana’s policies regarding subnational entities especially those related to own-source revenues, property taxes and government fragmentation. Ghana began the implementation of fiscal decentralization during the colonial era, but commenced more rigorous reforms only after 1988, with the enactment of laws to implement a Constitutional provision to allocate 5 percent of tax revenues to subnational governments and to fragment growing subnat

Abstract:
<p>It was the purpose of this study to demonstrate that the government of Namibia has been seeking to adopt structures and procedures that will contribute to the realization of general national development. Decentralization in any country takes place in a political context and its implementation assumes some political significance, as it is not merely a matter of centralization or decentralization of government functions and procedures, but both centralization and decentralization tendencies exist and reinforce each other in practice. This study argues that the dynamic features of decentraliza
