Administrative  Decentralization   To  create  smaller,  manageable  units  of  local  government  administration,  the  number  of  district   assemblies  has  been  increased  from  138  to  168.  This  was  done  through  the  splitting  of  larger   districts  into  smaller  units.   The  Local  Government  Service  Secretariat  has  been  established  and  is  operational.  A  Legislative   Instrument   to   transfer   functions,   resources   and   staff   to   the   District   Assemblies   and   Regional   Coordinating  Councils  has  been  drafted  and  is  under  study.   The  majority  of  Respondents  (43  percent)  indicated  that  there  has  been  an  improvement  of  the   flow   of   information   from   the   national   level   through   the   district   assemblies   to   citizens   (Figure   12)       34
