REGULATORY FRAMEWORK OF REPRESENTATIVE BODIES IN CROATIAN LOCAL GOVERNMENT

Tema završnog rada je „Regulatorni okvir predstavničkih tijela u hrvatskoj lokalnoj samoupravi“. Sustav lokalne samouprave u Republici Hrvatskoj sastoji se od jedinica lokalne samouprave, odnosno općina i gradova te od jedinica područne (regionalne) samouprave, odnosno županija. Građanima Republike Hrvatske pravo na lokalnu i područnu (regionalnu) samoupravu zajamčeno je samim Ustavom. Ustrojstvo i djelokrug lokalne i područne (regionalne) samouprave uređuje se Zakonom o lokalnoj i područnoj (regionalnoj) samoupravi. U ovom radu biti će istraženo Ustavno i zakonsko oblikovanje lokalne samouprave. Unutarnju strukturu ovih jedinica čine njihova tijela i to: predstavničko tijelo, izvršno tijelo i upravna tijela. U ovom završnom radu pisano je isključivo o predstavničkom tijelu te je kao konkretan primjer navedeno Gradsko vijeće Grada Novske. Cilj rada je proučiti način rada ovog Gradskog vijeća.The topic of this final paper is "Regulatory framework of representative bodies in Croatian local self-government". The system of local self-government in the Republic of Croatia consists of units of local self-government or municipalities and cities, and of units of regional self-government or counties. The citizens of the Republic of Croatia are guaranteed the right to local and regional self-government by the Constitution itself. The structure and scope of local and regional self-government is regulated by the Law on Local and Regional SelfGovernment. This paper will explore the constitutional and legal shaping of local selfgovernment. The internal structure of these units consists of their bodies: representative body, executive body and administrative bodies. In this final paper it is written exclusively about the representative body and the City Council of the City of Novska is cited as a concrete example. The aim of this paper is to study the way this City Council works
