A principle of EU introduced by Article 32 of the Maastricht Treaty:
in areas which do not fall within he exclusive competence of the EU, it shall not take action unless the objectives of the proposed action cannot be adequately achieved by individual member states.
![Page 6: BASIC GOALS OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION REFORM IN CROATIA Unit 10](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649e725503460f94b717fe/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Subsidiarity
provides for legislation at national level EU measures are not required.
![Page 7: BASIC GOALS OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION REFORM IN CROATIA Unit 10](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649e725503460f94b717fe/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Rule of law
1. Laws must exist and should be obeyed by all, including government officials.
2. Laws must be published.
![Page 8: BASIC GOALS OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION REFORM IN CROATIA Unit 10](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649e725503460f94b717fe/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Rule of law
3. Laws must be prospective in nature so that the effect of the law may only take place after the law has been passed (e.g. the court cannot convict a person of a crime committed before a criminal statute prohibiting the conduct was passed).
![Page 9: BASIC GOALS OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION REFORM IN CROATIA Unit 10](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649e725503460f94b717fe/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Rule of law
4. Laws should be written with reasonable clarity to avoid unfair enforcement.
5. Law must avoid contradictions. 6. Law must not command the
impossible
![Page 10: BASIC GOALS OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION REFORM IN CROATIA Unit 10](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062718/56649e725503460f94b717fe/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Rule of law
7. Law must stay constant through time to allow the formalization of rules; it also must allow for timely revision when the underlying social and political circumstances have changed.
8. Official action should be consistent with the declared rule.

Key
The Constitution of 1990 introduced the semi-presidential system based on the French model. From 1990 to 2001, public administration in Croatia developed in the
conditions of etatization, centralisation and politicisation of an authoritarian type. Besides an ever-increasing number of civil servants, the characteristics of these period were an insufficient level of professionalism of administrative personnel and politicization of
administrative services. The space for administrative-technical principles, expertise and professionalism was limited.

Key
Democratic political values were repressed, while law was regarded as the mere instrument of politics. The lack of co-ordination was compensated
for by arbitrary, ad hoc political interventions. Political-administrative system was closed and bureaucratised, imbued with the climate of secrecy

Key
The strong communes, inherited from socialist Croatia either became the central government’s obedient servants, or established themselves as the focal points of a strong opposition, even resistance to the central government. Rigorous screening took place in the ranks of the state and local civil servants and personnel in the public services based on political, national and similar criteria.

Key
The Revisions of the Constitution of 2000 (NN 41/01) marked the beginning of the decentralisation process. The new constitutional provisions meant a radical turn: they considerably constrained the powers of the central government by granting citizens the
right to local and regional self-government, and by accepting the concept of local self government as a counterbalance to the central government.

Key
The Croatian legislature began to harmonize the relevant provisions of the domestic law with the European Charter of Local Self-Government more than three years after its ratification. The Constitution transferred the responsibility for certain groups of public affairs to local and regional units as a real substratum of the citizens’ right to local and regional
self-government and accepted the principle of subsidiarity and solidarity

Osnovni ciljevi reforme javne uprave u Hrvatskoj su europeizacija i modernizacija. U procesu pridruživanja EU, Hrvatska se mora prilagoditi europskom iskustvu javne uprave i prihvatiti upravne standarde koji se šire europskim upravnim prostorom u nastajanju.

Translation
Europski standardi javne uprave obično nisu pisani – manje se bave konkretnom strukturom, organizacijom i veličinom javne uprave, a više njezinim osobinama i sposobnošću provedbe europske pravne stečevine.

U većini slučajeva, govorimo o iskustvu koje se katkada prenosi u smjernice, kao što je vladavina prava,načelo supsidijarnosti, načelo transparentnosti, itd. Građani se postavljaju u prvi plan i načini vođenja politike su usmjereni prema rezultatima.

Program SIGMA (zajednička inicijativa OECD-a i EU) postigao je određenu konkretizaciju kriterija za utvrđivanje upravne sposobnosti, no ti su kriteriji još uvijek samo okvirni.

Translation
Modernizacija znači dublje promjene u strukturama i procesima u javnoj upravi koje nalaze poticaj u današnjim utjecajnim upravnim doktrinama novog javnog managementa i dobrog upravljanja. Budući da hrvatska javna uprava još nije dostigla standarde niti tradicionalnog weberijanskog modela organizirane, dobro dokumentirane, nepristrane, etične, profesionalne i učinkovite javne uprave, treći cilj reforme mora uključiti upravni razvoj utemeljen na tradicionalnom modelu.
