The Local Government Ordinance (LGO), formulated by the National Reconstruction Bureau (NRB) in 2000 and promulgated by provincial governments in August 2001, assigns powers, responsibilities, and service delivery functions to three levels of local governments: district, tehsil, and union. Responsibilities for the delivery of social and human development services, such as primary and basic health, education and social welfare, are delegated to the district level, whereas municipal services, such as water, sanitation and urban services are assigned to the tehsil level. The LGO does not only deal with the delivery of public services in its plan but also stresses the need for fiscal decentralisation, claiming that “Fiscal decentralisation is the heart of any devolution exercise. Without fiscal decentralisation no authority is devolved.”

Outsourcing revenue collection in Local Government Authorities  has been adopted as a mechanism to solve the previous problems of revenue collection which resulted into loss and missmanagement of the whole process. One of the expectations was to increase revenue collection which will  provide a room for fiscal autonomy. However, experience from few local government authorities which have outsourced their revenue collection shows that, the whole process of outsourcing has not yielded the expected outcome especially on enabling local authorities to have fiscal autonomy instead it has turned to benefit the private agent who collect Tax. By using secondary data this paper attempts to show how the process of outsourcing is benefiting the private agent and therefore it is like giving everything out. It concludes that, though outsourcing seems to benefit local authorities by reducing some tasks especially on tax collection, outsorcing benefits much a private agent and therefore quick meausures should be adopted including building the capacity of Local Authorities in identifying the sources of revenue and  in estimating the actual collections so as to have clear picture of how much will be generated by the agent and what should be the appropriate amount to be submitted to the Local authority.

Meanwhile, the third objective is to determine the causal relationship between local government revenue and GRDP in provinces in Indonesia. In this study, the objects in this study are 33 provinces throughout Indonesia. The data used are from 2010 to 2019. The data used are secondary data obtained from the Central Statistics Agency (BPS). The analytical method used is the VAR (Vector Auto Regression) time series analysis and the cluasaility granger test. which is processed using the help of Eviews. Based on the results of hypothesis testing, it shows that: (1) There is no causal relationship between local government revenue and local government expenditure in 33 provinces in Indonesia, but what is formed is a one-way relationship between government revenue and local government expenditure in 33 Indonesian provinces. In the hypothesis testing stage (2) there is no causal relationship between local government spending and GRDP in 33 provinces in Indonesia, in the analysis stage there is no one-way or two-way relationship between government spending and GRDP. Thus the hypothesis is rejected, while the results of hypothesis testing (3) There is no causal relationship between local government revenue and GRDP in 33 provinces in Indonesia. In the analysis stage, there is no one-way or two-way relationship between each variable. Thus the third hypothesis is rejected.
