It is beyond dispute that free market requires an efficient support
and monitoring by the entire state administration apparatus. Therefore,
Croatia is facing a fundamental reform of the system of both state administration
and local self-government. In the previous years emphasis
was put on the establishment of the basic institutes of the state and on
the statehood itself, as well as on the stabilization of economy and on
the reconstruction of residential and economie facilities, while the next
step is certainly the building and completion of the system of state administration,
further decentralization of affairs and consolidation of the
local self-government, ali in order to make a more efficient and competent
administration as a whole.
