The research used the analytical descriptive curriculum to prepare the applied aspect of the study, where the two researchers used data collected by the study tool, a questionnaire that is specifically designed for that purpose. The research followed a thorough survey methodology to apply the study instrument to all 122 Ministry of Local Government employees who operate in the various control units in the Gaza Strip municipalities. The results of the research indicated the positive impact of all components of the COSO model (control environment, control activities, risk assessment, information and communication systems, and monitoring and follow-up) on the development of the internal control system in the municipalities of the Gaza Strip.
