Summary/Abstract: The national legislation in the field of local public administration has steadily improved following the onset of the process of adapting to the European requirements. The increase of public confidence in the institutions of public administration in general, and in those of local public administration in particular, can be ensured solely through the transparency of the decisional act at local level and through a conduct of integrity of the local administration staff and of the local officials. Decisional transparency and integrity in local public administration are concepts that have become concrete in the Romanian administrative system through several national legislative instruments inspired by European regulations. The article analyzes these legislative instruments and proposes an improvement of the legislative solutions contained, in order to increase transparency and integrity in local public administration and to avoid blockages in their implementation in administrative practice.
