Municipal Monitoring and Control Committees
The Municipal Monitoring and Control Committees of the Participatory Budget are spaces designed for auditing as provided for in Law 176-07, which establishes the national Participatory Budget system, to carry out the social control of the execution of the items assigned to each municipality and of the works chosen by the local Assemblies. Each municipality may determine the regularity of meetings as well as the number of members of said committees; currently there is an average of 10 representatives for each committee.
Institutional design
Formalization: is the innovation embedded in the constitution or legislation, in an administrative act, or not formalized at all?
Frequency: how often does the innovation take place: only once, sporadically, or is it permanent or regular?
Mode of Selection of Participants: is the innovation open to all participants, access is restricted to some kind of condition, or both methods apply?
Type of participants: those who participate are individual citizens, civil society organizations, private stakeholders or a combination of those?
Decisiveness: does the innovation takes binding, non-binding or no decision at all?
Co-governance: is there involvement of the government in the process or not?
