Abstract: Basic registers of public administration have been fundamental part of the Czech eGovernment already for more than 4 years. Public authorities work with reference data recorded in the basic registers in rightful cases and in the scope pursuant to the legal regulations, whereas a list of these cases and relevant authorizations are filed in the Basic Register of Rights and Obligations in the form of agendas and agenda activity roles. The Register of Rights and Obligations should become a map for public authorities, their competencies and activities used to fulfil these lawful competencies, and it should be used for procedural optimization of public administration and as a background for performance allowance for state administration performance. This contribution deals with quality analysis of registration agenda in the Register of Rights and Obligations, high level of which is necessary for achieving set goals. The research is based on three different approaches: a statistical analysis of registered agenda code list, a case study of agenda changes concerning keeping a permanent list of voters and a survey of current use of agenda activity roles for two selected agendas. Synthesis of obtained results gives us a picture of quality of agenda registration and activities in the Register of Rights and Obligations.
