THE STRUCTURE OF THE GOVERNMENT
THE UNITER STRUCTURE OF THE GOVERNMENT AND THE LOCAL ADMINISTRATIONS
The uniter structure of the Turkish Republic is determined by
Misak-ı Millî (National Borders) approved during the Independence
War.
There is the unification of legislation, execution, judgment,
jurisprudence and law in the government. The responsibility and
authorization of this unification is given to the central
government. The Uniter government is organized in the forms of
central government and local government. The central administration
is composed of Prime Ministry and Ministries beside legislation and
judgment.
The Turkish Republic has adopted the locally administrated uniter
government model instead of central, unstructured uniter government
model. The administrative services of the state are executed not
only by central administration but also by the persons elected by
the folk accommodating in various districts. The local
administration organizations, province special boards,
municipalities and villages possess public judicial personalities,
tasks and authorizations and possess properties. The local
administration organizations are directed according to laws issued
by the central administration and act in accordance with the
mentioned laws. In order to prevent the benefits of the political
parties from the local administration organizations and actions
contrary to equivalence principle, the supervision application named
"idari vesayet" (administrative testament) was put in force. The
central administration uses the authority of administrative ward
ship
and the jurisprudentially appropriateness and congruousness
supervisions are sometimes executed. However the administrative
ward ship can never replace the local administration and execute any
processes. For example, the decisions taken by the Province General
Council are dependent to the approval of the governor.
