| Tiivistelmä: | Based on a unique measure of performance (here as: perf.) of English local governments in the provision of public (as: pbl.) services (Comprehensive Performance Assessment, CPA), this paper identifies the determinants of perf. using panel data from 2002 to 2007. Especially, this paper aims at exploring the impact of government spending on pbl. service outcomes. Due to the nature of CPA ratings, the empirical work relies on an ordered response approach allowing for cross-sectional heterogeneity. Based on empirical evidence it is suggested that local pbl. expenditures in excess of centrally set spending standards have a disadvantageous effect on perf. |
