Abstract

The first voices calling for reforms in public administration began to be heard just 10 years after the formation of the first Basque Government following the restoration of democracy. Since then the programmes for all subsequent legislatures have included a section on the modernisation of the administration. This has given rise to various reform plans, the most significant of which is a report by CORAME («Committee from the Rationalisation and Improvement of Public Administration») dated June 1994, which set out «47 measures for renewing the organisational structure of the government and administration of the Basque Country». This paper presents an exhaustive analysis of the CORAME plan and assesses the process for its implementation and the strategy used, highlighting the reasons why those measures continue to constitute an agenda for reform that remains unimplemented even today. This clarification of the difficulties encountered and the reasons for them provides important lessons for future attempts at reforms.
