Summary/Abstract: Significant changes have occurred in the public administration of Slovakia since the end of last century, which is also affected by the process of unification of Europe and the emergence of supranational bodies. Another factor of influence is globalization processes and globalization flows, which also affect performance of public administration, initiate changes in application of management methods and tools, as well as in performance assessments in public administration. Public spending plays important role in the financing of public services, which is also prerequisite for their development. Operational Program (OP) Effective public administration provides financial assistance from European Union funds to improve the efficiency and quality of public administration. The target group includes state and local government authorities, social partners, civil society organizations and NGOs. Main objective of this paper is to analyse implementation of OP Effective Public Administration in particular regions of the Slovak Republic. In analysis, we focused on evaluating the success of individual regions in obtaining projects, current status of projects in implementation and completed projects, which is also related to the amount of approved non-repayable financial contribution. The analysis showed that almost 50% of the total number of submitted projects has been successfully implemented in each region. The biggest volume of funds for the realization of projects from the Operation Program Public Administration was acquired by the Prešov region and Košice region.
