Audit results by the Supreme Audit Body reveal that many articles were violated by these authorities in regard to the distributing, administrating, and reporting of assistance funds from them to political parties. Each rupiah committed by the 221 local government authorities involved in this study violated, on average, 1.8 articles, indicating a low level of compliance.                                        Critically, the study finds that administrative, fiscal, and political decentralization decreases discrepancies. The less administratively decentralized provincial authorities, where decision making is a level of government farther from the people, are more likely than non-provincial local government authorities to make discrepancies with political party legislation and regulations. Fiscally decentralized local government authorities, who earn a higher fraction of their revenue from local sources, also tend to have fewer discrepanciesFinally, politically decentralized authorities with a higher percentage of elected officials from the decentralized supporting ruling coalition, also have fewer discrepancies. - Reproudced.  aLocal government - Indonesia  aLocal government  aBrow, Alistair  aRusmin, Rusmin  aInternational Journal of Public Administration  aN  a99428  c99427d99427  00104070aIIPAbIIPAd2018-07-19hVolume no: 36, Issue no: 1pAR99888r2018-07-19w2018-07-19yAR
