On COE website, we can find one reference and information about last UDITE’s Congress:
The Congress, together with the Union of Local Authority Chief Executives of Europe (UDITE) organised a European conference, examining the partnership between the elected executive and the local authority chief executive which will take place in the Palais de l’Europe.
The objective of this Conference was to examine the ways in which local authority services are organised and the institutional relations between the executive body, generally political in nature, and the administrative body responsible for putting decisions into practice. The various parties concerned – elected representatives, local authority chief executives and experts – addressed the Conference on subjects such as the political and managerial responsibility of the elected executive in local and regional administration, the role of the chief executive in relations with the elected body and the administration and the synergies between politics and administration.
