Mediation in the administrative process

Abstract

The article is devoted to the issues of the peculiarities of mediation in the administrative process of Ukraine as a kind of alternative methods of conflict resolution, which needs improvement and development, taking into account international norms and national needs.
 It was found that in the process of reforming the judicial and law enforcement system, the issue of simplified dispute resolution procedures became relevant, in particular, we are talking about alternative methods (mediation, negotiations, etc.). This approach will make it possible to relieve the courts, speed up the resolution of disputes and help maintain friendly relations between the parties participating in the mediation process.
 It was emphasized that in Ukraine there are a number of cases in administrative proceedings that can be resolved in an alternative way. Alternative means of resolving administrative disputes will allow dynamic resolution of conflicts, in particular those related to traffic accidents, offenses in the field of labor protection and others, the settlement of which is possible under the legislation of Ukraine through the mediation procedure.
 It is noted that the Law of Ukraine "On Mediation” is in effect in Ukraine, the norms of which determine the peculiarities of mediation in civil, economic, administrative proceedings, in the field of notarial activity, modify social relations and require the use of special techniques, methods and methods of regulating mediation relations in legal processes.
 Attention is focused on the fact that for mediation in the administrative process it is important to observe the norms of ethical behavior, in particular, the mediator's code of ethics. In Ukraine today, the unified rules of ethical behavior of the mediator and participants in the mediation process are not legislated. Such rules are adopted by public associations based on the European Code of Conduct for Mediators.
 In administrative and legal practice, the experience of mediation is new, but, as practice shows, it is promising and in demand. The mediation procedure will help resolve the dispute positively for all parties, saving time and money as much as possible, and will also help the parties remain on good terms with each other.
