decision-making processes
Explanation:
In the context of the sentence, however, I would exercise translator's discretion and modify the syntax ever so slightly by referring the adjective "decision-making" to "responsibilities," so that the last part would become, "and their decision-making responsibilities." The word "processes" dissolves to allow for a smoother English flow, without a loss of meaning.
