Administrative and legal regulation of public service in bodies of the executive power

Abstract

In the paper, a study of the administrative and legal regulation of public service in the bodies of the executive power was carried out. On the basis of the conducted scientific research, the author came to the conclusion that the administrative and legal regulation of public service in the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine provides for the presence in its structure of political employees who are not subject to the provisions of the legislation on civil service, as well as the principles of professionalism, political neutrality and stability public service, as well as civil servants and employees of the patronage service. The latter ensure the activities of the members of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine (except for those who head the ministry) and are formally subordinated to the Secretariat of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, but in fact are subordinated only to the person whose activity they ensure. The administrative and legal regulation of public service in ministries and local executive bodies provides for the presence in their structure of both political and state and patronage employees, who are managed by the state secretary of the ministry (or the head of the staff of the local state administration), in other central bodies of executive power and territorial subdivisions of ministries, other central bodies of the executive power, there are no political employees, and the management of the state service and strategic management of the relevant body is carried out by its head.
