Co-management implies the participation of private interests in order to promote the public interests. Laws - both federal and regional - about the representation of personnel govern the co-management regime. Constitutional control over regional laws has led to the formulation of two questions. Do the laws respond to the demands of efficient administration? Do the measures concerning co-management respond to the demands of democratic legitimacy?
