Factors determining the success of contracting local public services: Waste collection and waste disposal, management of cemeteries in Slovakia
Original language description
Contracting public services to private firms is one of the most common types of alternative service-delivery arrangements. The relevant literature suggests that if, and only if the contracting is properly implemented, then it may, but need not to deliverpositive outcomes. The study examines the experience with contracting among Slovak municipalities. Despite some methodological problems, the data suggests that externalization of production generally does not deliver improved efficiency and quality. Thecore purpose for failures and the possible policy reponses are also offered.
