Twenty years ago, the Slovak National Council adopted the Municipal Establishment Act. After November 1989, it was the first act that laid legal foundations of territorial self-government at municipal level. From the adoption of this act until the end of the year 2010, this Act was amended forty times. The last amendment was implemented by the Act No. 102/2010 Coll. of 2 March 2010. The author points out that as the Act on the Capital City of the Slovak Republic Bratislava and the Act on the City of Kosice were not amended the mayors of these two cities have in many issues smaller competences than lord mayors of municipalities and cities. The article also refers to several motions the acceptance of which could contribute to the enhancement of the quality of work of territorial self-government bodies. Some members of municipal councils regard the new provision on the number of meetings of the municipal council (at least once every three months) as insufficient. This provision has been clearly misunderstood. According to Article 12 (1) of the Act the municipal council meets as needed, but at least once every three months. From its diction it clearly results that a decisive criterion for convening a municipal council´s meeting is the need and necessity of the meeting. The decision whether the meeting is required or not is up to the council members. The amendment of the Act created conditions for the improvement of quality of work of the territorial self-government bodies.
