Abstract
In Japanese local governments, the so-called administrative evaluation has been implemented and the result of the evaluation has begun to be informed publicly. Those local governments are mainly prefectures and major cities. Although many local governments introduced the administrative evaluation system, the results of performance measurement are not fully transmitted to the general public. There are some conditions to make difficult the disclosure: the complicated and detailed reports of the performance are not easy to understand, and the general public cannot access that reports without some cost. The disclosure through the Internet Web site is expected to be the resolution of these limitations. In our research, the We pages do not adequately describe the results of evaluation, and there must be the continuous effort to proceed to the transparency.
