An Administrative Law describes and establishes the core principles, values, and characteristics which create the distinctive culture and ethos of the civil service. Drafted properly it can provide a clear and unified framework within which the civil service can carry out its distinctive roles and responsibilities. It also provides a legal basis for the legislature to express the important values and culture it wants in the civil service. It becomes an unambiguous statement to those within the civil service and to the people of India of what is expected of the civil servants. In addition, the legal framework makes Administrative Law not just one initiative of the government in power, but a lasting initiative towards better performance and accountability. The experience of these activities most of the countries suggests that with the adoption of the executive agency model the capacity of the civil service has been strengthened to deliver effective public services. Substantial benefits have accrued from the implementation of the model but there have been costs too. Discussed below is an assessment of the benefits and costs. The greatest benefit is that the civil servants working in the agencies have been given autonomy flexibility and incentives to achieve results by relaxing the traditional centralized control over the use of financial and human resources. This is a real benefit because centralized controls emphasize inputs rather than results and often get in the way of performance. In exchange for greater flexibility and autonomy the executive agency model has introduced stringent performance requirements and enhanced accountability.
