The survey consisted of 34 QoG and demographic-based questions to the approximately 200 respondents per region. Regarding the QoG questions, the respondents were asked about three general public services in their regions – education, health care and law enforcement – which are often administered or financed by regional authorities,s to maximize the amount of within-country variation. In focusing on these three services, we asked respondents to rate their public services with respect to three related concepts of QoG – the quality, impartiality and level of corruption of said services 1. In addition we included two further questions in the index – one about the fairness of regional elections and the other about the strength and effectiveness of the media in the region to expose corruption. The complete survey can be found in the appendix to the report.
