Local authorities' duty

Local authorities are responsible for providing essential services and maintaining community well-being, such as education, transportation, waste collection, social care, and local planning. Their duty is to ensure these services meet the needs of residents, promote safety, and support local development. They must manage public resources effectively, listen to community concerns, and make decisions that benefit the area as a whole. Essentially, their role is to serve and improve the quality of life for everyone living in their jurisdiction through responsible governance and service delivery.
