Devolution Agreements

Devolution Agreements are formal arrangements between a national government and local authorities that transfer powers and responsibilities to the local level. This process allows regions, cities, or local councils to have greater control over areas such as education, transportation, and health services. The aim is to give local leaders more authority to make decisions that better reflect the needs of their communities. These agreements often come with funding, enabling local governments to manage resources and implement policies tailored to their specific circumstances, fostering more responsive and accountable governance.
