Abstract
The article considers the history of the development of analysis of draft laws in the Russian Federation. It has been revealed that the legal expertise appeared before any other type of examination of draft laws. The Legal Department under the Secretariat of the Presidium of the Supreme Council of the RSFSR combined two functions: elaboration of draft laws and their legal expertise. Until 1991, examination of draft laws was not legally regulated. Then, the provision for legal expertise was envisaged in the Statute of the Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR and it defined the expertise of draft laws as one of the functions of the legal department; and the editorial and publishing department was obliged to carry out lexical expertise. The most recent type of expertise includes anti-corruption expertise that has been carried out by the committees of the Federation Council since 2009. The history of the development of draft laws expertise confirms the fact that organization of the legislative process is an indicator of the political and legal situation in the state.
