Satisfaction with public services
The public are generally satisfied with the public services they personally receive, but increasingly dissatisfied with public services nationally .This can be partly attributed to the public perception that recent increased government spending on public services has not actually improved them. This ‘perception gap' [1] is partly a result of negative publicity in the media and by political parties about the low quality of public services. It also reflects the growing consumerist approach that individuals have in relation to public services. Individuals are becoming more assertive in voicing their expectations of services and defending their rights. They are increasingly difficult to please and have rising expectations of services, both in terms of quality and choice.
