English term or phrase: mandate
Hi

I was wondering if you could help me with the following.

Context: "one of the major roles of government in public recreation is to provide equity in the distribution of leisure services and programs. some have argued that given their mandate, government provision of parks and rexreation should be primarily concerned with issues of equity before considering other issues such as effectiveness and efficiency (Crompton and Lamb, 1986)"

In the above what or who does "their" refer to? and could you help me with the meaning of "given their mandate"


Thanks.
