Conclusions

Abstract

As we argued in the introductory chapter the comparative analysis of local government finance on a cross-national basis is fraught with difficulties. One of the few generalisations which can be made, and which does approach being a universal truth, however, is that the structuring and restructuring of the system of local government finance is a continuing concern of national politicians. Whether it is on the scale of modifying the system of grants paid by the centre to the localities, or the installation of a new tax option, local finance is never far from the political agenda.
