Legal mechanism for resolving tax disputes, which is initiated by submitting complaints to the business ombudsman council

Research article is devoted to the study of the legal mechanism for resolving tax disputes, which is initiated by submitting complaints to the Council of the Business Ombudsman, identifying the features and characteristics of this mechanism as one of the alternative ways of resolving disputes, in particular tax disputes. It is emphasized that tax disputes cause the submission of the majority of complaints to the business ombudsman, among them the following issues: blocking of tax invoices, VAT reimbursement, restoration of tax-legal status, determination of the customs value of goods, drawing up acts based on the results of tax audits, bringing to financial responsibility for violation of tax legislation, collection of tax debt and others. It is stated that more than 57 percent of complaints submitted to the business ombudsman in Ukraine relate to tax issues. It is shown that the business ombudsman determines the procedure for submitting, taking into consideration and considering complaints from business entities, makes decisions on the consideration of complaints in accordance with the regulations of the Council and forwards them for its consideration, and the Council of the business ombudsman considers complaints, makes requests to public administration bodies regarding their taking measures to implement the recommendations of the Council.The authority of the business ombudsman to organize cooperation on the part of the relevant parties as a mediator for the peaceful settlement of issues (in the form of concluding a “peaceful settlement”), which is the subject of their dispute, has been disclosed. The main features of the business ombudsman institution in Ukraine are highlighted and it is noted that the Business Ombudsman Council is not a threat to the public administration system, but contributes to the establishment of the trust of the business environment in the public administration and in general in the state. It has been noted that the issue of consolidation of the status of the business ombudsman institution at the level of a special law and clear definition of the legal boundaries of the business ombudsman’s exercise of powers, as well as research of the best experience of legal regulation and functioning of similar institutions in foreign countries and existing legal gaps, remains relevant.

Towards inclusive public administration systems: Public budgeting from the perspective of critical race theory

AbstractWhile there is a developing consensus that governments need to address systemic racism, public administration scholarship has not played a large role in supporting policymakers who want to achieve that end. To institutionalize that effort, we analyze the budget process as a setting to identify inequities and incorporate social equity given its overarching reach across all programs and policies. This article uses the tenets of critical race theory to illustrate how to use the budget process to incorporate equity. The resulting racial equity budgeting (REB) framework has three tenets: acknowledging and correcting historic biases, increasing the voice of nondominant groups, and disrupting the status quo by ensuring equity in current policies. The REB framework suggests how public officials may apply these tenets to the stages of public budgeting, including the use of reparation statements, increasing the participation of underrepresented minorities, and reviewing the disaggregated impact of policies, among others.

Enerhetychna bezpeka derzhavy v umovakh posylennia hlobalizatsiinykh protsesiv

The study states that energy today has a significant impact on the economy and other industries, and it represents the state of the couontry’s energy security and sustainable development of the state in the future. It is established that the problem of providing the Ukrainian economy with energy resources is not limited exclusively to economic levers and mechanisms and requires increased attention in connection with the critical dependence on the import of energy carriers and powerful transit lines and international transport corridors. A number of definitions of the category «state’s energy security» in normative documents and scientific works have been given. It is noted that along with geographical factors and the volume of available resource reserves, it is important to understand the status and position of the state on the global energy market. It is determined that the field of energy security covers five levels (global, collective, national, regional and business entity level), within which organizational structures and institutional components are distinguished within each of the levels. It has been established that the processes of globalization significantly affect the sphere of state’s energy security, in particular, they change the structure of the modern world, affect national systems of public administration and strategies in various spheres of life of society and the state, but national interests should still prevail in state policy, covering directions for reformatting the energy profile of Ukraine by greening the industry, using renewable energy sources and finding new non-traditional energy sources, actively implementing innovations and training an energy-literate domestic consumer with a conscious understanding of the objective need for energy saving and energy efficiency. Two key negative trends in the field of energy security are indicated: inefficient use of fuel and energy resources by consumer and producer countries and untimely or incomplete satisfaction of the required volumes in fuel and energy resources of the national economies of consumer countries as a tool in influencing state policy by countries -producers of such resources. The author notes that the state of war on the territory of Ukraine, the period of post-war reconstruction, new challenges and threats will require the adjustment of state policy priorities in the field of energy security.

Местное самоуправление в постсоветский период: институциональные аспекты эволюции

The aim was to study the evolution of the institute of local self-government in the post-Soviet period of Russia's development. The research methods were content analysis of the messages of the President of the Russian Federation and work with archival materials. As a result of the analysis of the selected types of sources, the hypothesis was confirmed that the establishment of local self-government in the mid-1990s in a radical form in the form of separation from the public administration system was situationally political in nature, meeting the interests of the municipal elite. The political force that made the separation of local self-government bodies from the system of state power, the dominant discourse, became the municipal elite. Having provided support to B. in the summer and autumn of 1993. In opposition to Yeltsin with the Supreme Soviet, she received in return the maximum independence on the ground, which was fundamentally important for her in the conditions of unfolding privatization. At the same time, it was protected from control "from above" by the status of local self-government, isolated from the state structure, and there could be no control "from below", due to the absence of the middle class. The inconsistency of this form of organization of local self-government with the basic socio-economic parameters predetermined the further evolution of this institution in the direction of inclusion in the system of public power and strengthening of state control. Thus, this evolution was not a consequence of the central government's voluntaristic desire to spread authoritarian trends to the lower "floors" of management, as foreign authors often write, but a completely natural process. A particular conclusion of a methodological nature is also made that studies of the evolution of local self-government in the post-Soviet period demonstrate the limitations of a institutional approach that absolutizes the role of institutions in solving problems of social development.

Features of the initial stage of digitalization of the executive authority of Ukraine: historical and legal overview

The article is devoted to the historical and legal analysis of the specifics of the process of primary digitization of the executive power in modernization in modern Ukraine (1993–2003), highlighting the main legal patterns of such a process. It is shown that the digitalization of the executive power has become a component of the only, in fact, process of digitalization of the public administration system in Ukraine, which covered all spheres, levels and segments of the functioning of state authorities and their interaction with citizens and society as a whole. Being a legal process, such digitization naturally required proper legal regulation both at the stage of introducing innovations regarding the use of ICT in the field of organization and activities of the executive power, and at the stage of implementing these innovations. The early stage of digitalization became the stage of informatization of the executive power in the context of the constitutional and legislative institutionalization of the executive power, when only the first legal steps regarding the initial digitalization in the context of the informatization of public administration were outlined. It is highlighted that this process continued within the stage of primary digitalization (1993–2003) without a clear conceptual vision of its political and legal essence, specificity and purpose of digitalization of the executive power, and its deployment in these conditions coincided in time with the unfinished institutionalization of the system of executive power bodies in Ukraine, which was determined first by the incompleteness of the constitutional process and the conceptual ambiguity of the constitutional model of the executive power system institutionalized in Ukraine (until 1996), and later by attempts to combine the digitalization of the executive power with attempts to reform it within the framework of the administrative reform paradigm (since 1998). It has been found that the key directions of digitalization of the executive power within this stage were the following: creation of the primary legal basis of digitalization; legitimization of informatization of state administration as one of the key functions of executive authorities; creation of the National Agency for Informatization under the President of Ukraine as an institutional center for the primary digitization of the executive power; legitimization of mandatory publication on the Internet of information about the activities of executive authorities; ensuring the functioning of websites of executive authorities of all levels on the basis of uniform standards, their unification and standardization; introduction of the Unified web portal of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine, intended for the integration of official websites of executive authorities and placement of information resources in accordance with the needs of citizens; ensuring the coordination of work to ensure the functioning of the Unified web portal, its information content, technical support, support and establishment of regulations and standards for information exchange between its constituent parts; monitoring compliance with information protection requirements in information and telecommunication systems that ensure the content and functioning of official websites (web portals) of executive authorities and the Unified web portal; outline as a prospective task of the transition to a paperless (electronic) form of document circulation in the bodies of executive power.

The Role of the Tax System in the Country’s Economy

Key words: principle, function, tax legislation, efficient, competitive, tax revenues, collection The role of taxes, the tax system and tax policy in the economic development of the country cannot be overestimated. They affect economic growth, development sustainability, structural shifts in the economy, and ultimately, the quality of life and the level of population’s well-being. Important tasks of any state are: establishing an optimal structure of taxation, achieving high efficiency of all tax functions. One of the guarantees for ensuring the economic development of the country is its economic security, which is due to the activities of the public administration system. From this point of view, it is important to constantly improve the tax system, which is an important tool for influencing the economy. One of the main factors hindering the development of the country’s economy is the imperfection of the tax system and the instability of tax legislation. Thus, the effective functioning of the economic system of the state depends on how correctly and elastically the tax system is formed. To characterize the tax system and evaluate its role in stimulating the economy, it essentially needs to be competitive and neutral. It is a competitive and neutral tax system that can create favorable conditions for the development of the economy as a whole, increase production efficiency, and contribute to an increase in the quality of living standards. At the same time, the presence of a competitive and neutral tax system is a necessary but not sufficient condition for realizing the full potential of collecting tax revenues to the budgets of various levels, which is facilitated by the presence of an effective tax administration.

The Legal Status of Independent Regulatory Organs and Their Place in the Hungarian State Administration

Independent regulatory organs as a type of administrative body were included among the central state administrative bodies upon the entry into force of the Fundamental Law of Hungary. The key feature of independent regulatory organs is that they also have the power to legislate within the framework of the regulatory authority’s activity; in other words, they can intervene in the relations of their administered sector through the creation of generally binding rules of conduct, which are enforced through the official activities falling within their scope of duties and powers. The characteristics of the legal status of independent regulatory organs and the components of their independence are therefore of particular importance in the system of public administration. The content and strength of their independence are not identical but are adapted to the professional content and EU and constitutional requirements of the specialised area of administration for which the Fundamental Law authorises the National Assembly to establish these bodies.

STATE ADMINISTRATION OF THE AGRO-INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX OF THE REPUBLIC OF KAZAKHSTAN: PROBLEMS OF LEGAL REGULATION

The study articulates the problems of state management in the field of agro-industrial complex of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The article provides a conceptualization of the legal foundations of state regulation of the country's agrarian sector. The study contains an analysis of modern scientific theories of public administration in the field of agricultural production: current definitions are given, qualification models of the principles and methods of public administration of the agro-industrial complex are considered. On the basis of policy documents, an analysis of the modern concept of development of the agro-industrial complex of Kazakhstan was carried out, attention was focused on transformational processes in the course of ongoing reforms, the main modern trend is the transformation of state programs into national projects. The national project for the development of the agro-industrial complex of the Republic of Kazakhstan for 2021-2025, as a successor to the state program, is intended to be implemented using project management mechanisms, with the implementation of the project approach in the public administration system. The article concludes that it is expedient to clearly understand the meaning and content of legal terms in the legislation in order to more accurately consolidate the competence of state bodies, decentralize state administration and, as a result, increase the efficiency of state bodies and their responsibility at all levels of government. Due importance is given to the institution of state support as a method of state regulation of a complex nature. Of particular importance in the paradigm of public management research is administrative regulation as a method of influence, directly related to the powers of management structures and the possibility of applying prohibition, authorization and coercion measures. The study concluded that it is necessary to constructively orient the state's agrarian policy towards a qualitative reform of the agro-industrial complex.

INSTITUTIONAL STABILITY OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION IN THE CONDITIONS OF INCREASING ECONOMIC AND LEGAL CHALLENGES AND THREATS OF FINANCIAL AND ECONOMIC AND SOCIO-POLITICAL CRISIS IN UKRAINE

The purpose of the article is to study the theoretical foundations and practical aspects of the justification of the peculiarities and identification of problems of institutional stability of public administration in the conditions of increasing economic and legal challenges and threats of the financial and economic and socio-political crisis of Ukraine. Based on the results of the conducted research, it can be stated that in the conditions of the strengthening of the financial and economic and socio-political crisis, there is an aggravation of the negative impact of economic and legal challenges and threats that significantly unbalance the institutional stability of public administration. The article analyzes the main scientific approaches to determining the essence of the institutional stability of public administration, identifies the main factors that have the most destructive effect on the public administration system, identifies the most important problems of the institutional stability of public administration, and finds out that they increase their destabilizing influence in the period of aggravation of economic and legal challenges and threats of the financial and economic and social-political crisis. Empirical evaluations of the Integral indicator of public administration in Ukraine for the period of 2018–2021 were carried out according to such subindexes as "implementation of the right to vote in the state and accountability", "government efficiency", "political stability and absence of violence", "quality of legislation", "the rule of law" and "corruption control", as a result of which their critical values were established, which lead to a significant imbalance of the public administration system, to the deepening of social tensions and to the exacerbation of crisis situations. The main measures to increase the institutional stability of public administration are proposed, among the most significant of which are the formation of a special mechanism for forecasting risks, threats and dangers to the system of public administration, taking into account crisis situations and the strengthening of financial and economic and socio-political challenges; improvement of current domestic legislation and its harmonization with the norms of European and international law; development of an effective anti-corruption mechanism and its legislative regulation.

Constitutional and Administrative Aspects of Foreigners’ Status in Spain

HUMANITARIAN POLICY OF DECENTRALIZATION IN UKRAINE: WAYS OF IMPROVEMENT

The article states that among the main problems of the humanitarian sphere’s development at the regional level are the shortcomings of public administration’s the existing system, its centralized burden, inherited from the time of the command-administrative system. Several directions for improving humanitarian policy at the regional level have been identified: the first is decentralization of power (bringing management closer to its consumers, facilitating access to participation in making and monitoring the implementation of management decisions, simplifying public control over state expenditures and their results); the second - modernization of public management of the humanitarian sphere at the regional level (identification of fundamental spiritual values, achievement of understanding on the most acute problems of Ukraine's historical past, as historical experience and historical memory of all regions and all generations of Ukrainians); the third is humanitarian development and social equalization of regions (development of human potential: education, children's rights, health, culture, employment and social cohesion, gender equality), etc. It has been proven that modern humanitarian policy, like politics in other spheres of social life, is implemented today in the conditions of transformation of central authorities and decentralization of management. The main problems of the development of the humanitarian sphere at the regional level, according to the author, are the defects of the existing system of public administration, its centralized burden, inherited from the time of the command-administrative system. It was concluded that granting the maximum autonomy of the powers of local authorities to solve the problems of humanitarian development at their level is not only a reduction of the often unjustified influence of the center on the daily activities of local authorities, but also a strengthening of the initiatives of the latter, their activity and cooperation with by various subjects of humanitarian activity, which contributes to the democratization of the entire management system in the humanitarian sphere.

New Public Management in the Public Administration System

The purpose of the article is to study the concept of new management, clarify the essence, goals and tasks of new public management as an approach to organizing the activities of power institutions. The methodology base of the research involves the use of methods of analysis, synthesis, comparison, generalization and forecasting. The traditional model of public administration has undergone serious changes and has actually been replaced by a new model of public administration. This change is a change characterized by a transition from administration to management and from bureaucracy to the market. This transformation was the result of economic pressures resulting from the ongoing financial crisis, which was associated with the rise of conservative political parties in Western democracies. The development of democracy raises the level of requirements for the quality of public administration. Modern societies strengthen control over the activities of state organizations, demanding both economic efficiency and effectiveness of activities, but also the provision of clientoriented results of activities (social values). Modern processes of democratization of Ukrainian society and reform of the system of public administration of Ukraine include not only the use of new management technologies, but also the introduction of innovative and effective management models. Such models of public management as «new public management», «governance» and «good governance» have been successfully tested by many developed countries of the world, the essence of these models is the gradual transition from executive-administrative forms of management to governance focused on satisfying needs and interests customers. Analysis of the concept of new public management, its goals, principles and characteristics shows that its elements are based on existing theoretical developments and have already been applied in one form or another in world practice. At the same time, due to the wide application of market mechanisms, the new public management is a different view of public management. The scientific novelty consists in the study of the essence of the traditional model of public administration. The main characteristics of New Public Management are presented. Conclusions. New public management arises as a result of the application of an economic approach to the analysis of the activity of the public administration system. The introduction of new mechanisms of New Public Management in public administration has led to serious changes in procedures, processes, chains and network relations between organizations and within organized government bodies. Key words: public administration, public administration, public management, New Public Management, modern management.
