UKG has been given several special autonomous rights in public administration delegated by its members under the Local Autonomy Act. In addition to promoting regional-wide administrative works mentioned in the first Building Block, it partially takes over the role of the national administration. For policymaking on important issues, UKG constitutes a special coordination body composed of governors and mayors of UKG members. Each member is appointed as a commissioner responsible for decision-making and implementation for each administrative field/sub-field of UKG, and field offices are set up under each responsible member governments. Furthermore, councils can be set up to discuss important issues of the region with participation of local stakeholders. This governance system ensures that UKG represents the regional voices. Nevertheless, the finance of the Union entirely depends on mandatory contributions from the member governments and subsidies from the national government as the right of taxation is not included in the given rights.
