Secondly, decentralization reforms have not been coordinated with sectoral service delivery
reforms conducted by central government agencies. The lack of clearly delineated responsibilities
between central-government and LAOs, and no coordination between sectoral reforms and
decentralization reforms have led a reform-flux with agencies responsible for decentralization
are trying to decentralize ownership of health and education units, while central government
agencies have been trying to retain control of these units and to improve service delivery. Lack
of coordination has resulted in significant tension in service delivery.
