General Assembly The assembly's job and scope of authority

The assembly's job and scope of authority
 

Within the boundaries set by law, the assembly has the right to decide freely in the discrete cases that belong to its scope of authority and it can create enactments in its own scope of duties, if the law authorizes it.

The local governmental rights -with deflections set by law- behove the county's local government as well.

When the assembly is completing its tasks as well as when it is practicing its scope of authority, the assembly must take into account that there is not a dependant relationship between county's and settlements' local governments.

The assembly's maxim is publicity. This is secured by the use of tools that are at their service.

Only the law can set mandatory tasks for the assembly.

Beyond the completion of the tasks set by law, the assembly can freely take on public jobs.

In order to complete its tasks more effectively, the assembly can -by setting the Statutes as a basis- initiate the creation of partnerships with any county's or settlement's local government.

The assembly and its body are striving for cooperation with the centrally subordinated agencies, as well as with the county's towns' local governments and other county's local governments.

The assembly and its body complete the jobs of the county's local government. The assembly's body is made up of: the president of the assembly, the committees, and the office of the assembly.

The assembly has 41 members.
