Public services is a term usually used to mean services provided by government to its citizens, either directly (through the public sector) or by financing private provision of services. The term is associated with a social consensus (usually expressed through democratic elections) that certain services should be available to all, regardless of income. Even where public services are neither publicly provided nor publicly financed, for social and political reasons they are usually subject to regulation going beyond that applying to most economic sectors. Public services is also a course that can be studied at college and/or university. These courses can lead entry in to the: police, ambulance and fire services. It is also an alternative term for civil service.

A service is helping others with a specific need or want. Service ranges from a doctor curing an illness, to a repair man, to even a food pantry. All of these services are important in people's lives. From Wikipedia under the

I am genuinely curious, as it just doesn't make sense: how do all those illegal immigrants use government services (such as hospitals and schools) without being able to qualify or show proper documentation?

The Supreme Court decided that in Plyler v. Doe in 1982.

It might involve purchasing an item, investing in a business, or having some good or service produced. The principal cannot do it himself for various reasons -- lack of time, lack of skill, lack of a specific resource. He must hire an agent to do it for him. Now, for this to be interesting, the agent must have something that cannot be observed by the principal. For example, there might be some outside forces (weather, other employees, red tape, etc.) that affect the agent's work, but the principal cannot tell whether a… [cont.] Answered by Allan - Fri Oct 5 08:47:35 2007 From Yahoo Answer Search: "Public services" FG to reclassify contractors, saves N5.9bn in contract inflation - Nigerian Tribune
