The government in Timor-Leste in carrying out its government, has been regulated in its Constitution ,as stipulated in the Article 115 of theConstitution of the Republic (2002) regarding the authority of the government. In Timor-Leste the relationship between Central Government and Local Government is established by the law of competencies delegation only as yet the decentralization of law is still in the debate process by the members of the parliament. As a Republic state with more than 10 administrative regions under municipalities and one region as a Special Economic Zone, the relationship between central and local government is governed by the new born pf delegation of competencies policies and legislation. There is a need to further study the Theory of Local Government Authority and how its Interdependencies align between central and local government based on the delegation of competencies. This article provides a brief analysis on how attribution, delegation and mandate will apply to the interdependencies of authority between central government and local government, as well as how these ways of authority cope to maintain the check and balance power between central and local governmen
