dc.description.abstractAutonomy and trust are essential ingredients for local government performance. The trust generated at local level is further essential in enabling intra- and inter-organisational relationships, rational decision-making processes and co-creation. Understanding of centre-local relations within a local government system reveals ways in which the autonomy that resides with local government administrative units may be compromised if attention is restrained from institutional-based trust, a vital ingredient for effective administration. The study interrogates specific questions on how a regulated 1) political autonomy, 2) financial autonomy and 3) administrative autonomy in the local governments affects building institutional based trust and undermines good governance. Based on Uganda’s case, the study suggests a key remedy of increasing central government institutions trust through, the formalisation of administrative structures and systems, duty-load and local revenue orchestration, and local capacity building. These are tenable through effective trust assurances and situational normality in a regulated local government system environment.en_US
