Most of these lower governments have been elected so that they decentralization is not just administrative or fiscal but also political. The motivation for their decentralization has varied. In Eastern Europe and former Soviet union, it was part of the political and economic transformation, in Latin America, it was to reinforce the transition to democracy, in South Africa, Sin Lanka and Indonesia, It was a response to regional conflict and in Chile, Uganda and Cote Divoire, it was to improve the delivery of basic services (Shah and Thompson, 2004). Even when it’s not explicit, improving service delivery is an implicitly motivation behind most of the decentralization efforts. A major argument supporting decentralization reform is that it can improve public service provision by matching finances with local needs. This study evaluated the effects of decentralization on access to and intermediate outputs of two essential services that are typically transferred to the sub-national governments as a part of the decentralization process health and education provision to do this, the study provided an analytical framework to examine the relationships between decentralization and performance.
