In unitary states (like France), all laws are made at the center and apply equally everywhere in the country. Local governments are merely administrative districts applying the national laws locally. Local governments may be elected or appointed by the center but they have no law-making power.
In non-unitary states (like the USA and other federal states), local governments at various levels can make their own laws in certain areas. Local officials are all elected locally. This is local self-government.
When the elected local governments in Northern Ireland get along, they have local self-government. Unfortunately, in the last year or so the local self-governments have been deadlocked; the UK took away local self-government/home rule and now governs Northern Ireland through the central government in Westminster.
