Local government in Sri Lanka
Local government is the third and lowest level of government in Sri Lanka – after the central government and provincial councils. The local government bodies are collectively known as local authorities. They are responsible for providing a variety of local public services including roads, sanitation, drains, housing, libraries, public parks and recreational facilities. Local authorities are divided into three different groups: municipal councils, urban councils and divisional councils (pradeshiya sabha or pradesha sabhai). As of January 2011 there were 335 local authorities (23 municipal councils, 41 urban councils and 271 divisional councils). All local authorities are elected using the open list proportional representation system.
==History==
Sri Lanka has a long history of local government.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.localgovernance.lk/index.php?option=com_content&view=category&layout=blog&id=2&Itemid=135&lang=en&pagetheme=home&Itemid=135 )〕 According to the Mahavamsa the earliest Sinhalese settlements, dating to the 4th century BC, were village based. These villages were used by the Sinhalese kings as a unit of administration. Each village was independently administered. Village Councils (Gam Sabhas) administered local affairs, addressed people's grievances and settled minor disputes. The village based administration continued for centuries in one form or the other.
