In a time when the challenges to public administration grow steadily, Tyrol has decided to take an important step towards the reform partnership between the federal government, the states and the municipalities. Governor Anton Mattle represents Tyrol in the state negotiation team and is committed to simplifying cooperation, such as tirol.gv.at .

public administration in change
