Towns with County Status in Hungary

Renáta Tábit ; Fakultet za javnu upravu Nacionalnog sveučilišta za javnu

Sažetak

Hungary is organised into counties, towns and communities (villages), and the capital city. The paper analyses a special type of municipal government – the town with county status (TCS; town with county rights or town with county rank). Several issues are analysed: legal regulation of this particular type of local self-government, the history of towns with county status, their formation and organization, the relationship between the counties and towns with county status, and legal regulation of the counties. The most important problems and several proposals for improvement in connection to the TCS are identified. Information about 23 towns with county status and about the Association of Towns with County Status is given. The problems with regard to TCS have existed for two decades both in the political life and in the professional community. According to the last Government’s legislative draft, county status of these towns is
proposed to be abolished.
