An alcohol-related liver disease multi-stakeholder hub (ARMS-Hub) to enhance research activity in underserved communities in the UK.

Alcohol use is the third leading risk factor of death and disability in the UK and costs the NHS £3.5 billion per year. Despite the high prevalence and healthcare burden of Alcohol-related Liver Disease (ArLD), there has been minimal research addressing prevention, morbidity and mortality. Reasons for this include stigma and lack of interest from public, charitable and commercial funding bodies. The objectives of this project were to identify and develop interdisciplinary partnerships, to explore stigma in ArLD, to develop a representative Patient and Public Involvement and Engagement (PPIE) group, to build research capacity, and to develop interdisciplinary research proposals targeting key research priorities. ArLD networks were identified by members of the Project Steering Group. Health Care Professionals (HCPs) from different backgrounds were invited to join the ARMS-Hub. PPIE representatives were invited through charities and support groups. Research areas were identified, discussed, prioritised and ranked. Research questions were refined during an in-person symposium. A mentorship programme was created to encourage and facilitate networking and knowledge exchange for early career researchers. We established the ARMS-Hub with 31 HCPs and 40 PPIE members. There were five stakeholder meetings, which included PPIE representation. Three virtual and three in-person PPIE meetings took place. Topics relevant to stigma in ARLD identified during the meetings were education and awareness, language, and access. Priorities identified were the disconnect between mental health and liver services, education around the wider harms of alcohol, and education of HCPs regarding stigma. We established a mentorship network that regularly meets to support development of new research ideas. Stigma is central to lack of research engagement from professionals and PPIE. The main priority identified relates to the disconnect between mental health and liver services. This collaborative study has allowed development of a research agenda to address this priority.

INNOVATIONS IN HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT IN THE PUBLIC SECTOR OF UKRAINE

The article examines the characteristics of innovations in human resource management within Ukraine’s public sector. It defines the concept of innovation in human resource management as the introduction of new ideas, methods, technologies, and processes aimed at enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of managing human resources. The importance of studying this topic is highlighted, particularly in light of the need for the public sector and government bodies to adapt to the demands of wartime and the socio-political crisis, as well as the necessity to develop a strategy for advancing the public sector through the implementation of various international agreements. The main objective of the study is to analyze the specific features of introducing innovations in the human resource management system of Ukraine’s public sector. This includes identifying successful practices for implementing electronic systems, key areas for the digitalization of public administration, and promising research directions. The study demonstrates that several organizational, technological, and social variables influence the interactions between employees, management, and other stakeholders. For instance, technological innovations enable the automation of HR processes (e.g., talent management systems, HR analytics, electronic document management platforms) and the use of online tools for employee training and development (e-learning, webinars). Organizational innovations promote the adoption of new management models. The study highlights several priority areas for further development: strategic communications in public policy, shaping the corporate culture of government agencies, defining their mission, strategic goals, values, and vision; fostering innovative leadership; developing horizontal connections within organizations through innovation; and ensuring principles such as fairness, transparency, openness, and equal access through the digital transformation of public administration.

Application of probabilistic and stochastic models and data mining for forecasting the contingent of old age pension recipients in the context of systemic uncertainty

The object of the research is mathematical models for forecasting the contingent of pension recipients in conditions of uncertainty caused by both the reform of the pension system and the impact of armed aggression. Based on the study of statistical information on the structure and dynamics of the contingent of pension recipients, an approach to uncovering systemic uncertainty in the task of forecasting the contingent of pensioners is proposed. This work is part of a study of the application of data mining methods of intellectual data analysis and mathematical modeling in information technology intended for use in the pension system. The main focus of this work is on forecasting the dynamics of the contingent of pension recipients by age, in particular, forecasting the number of newly appointed pensions. The difficulty of forecasting the contingent of pension recipients, in particular by age, is connected with the fact that it is necessary to ensure the representativeness and variability of data sets. In addition, it should be taken into account that a significant number of factors must be included in the model in accordance with the requirements of regulatory documents. Another problematic issue is that the time series of the investigated indicators, such as data on the insurance experience of insured persons (based on the results of a sample survey), may contain significant (more than 40 %) gaps that can be filled only on the basis of primary (paper) documents. Therefore, the input data sets are formed with assumptions about the probability of the accumulation of insurance experience in various groups of insured persons. The paper proposes an analytical toolkit based on the use of probabilistic and statistical models in the form of Bayesian networks, intended for use in specialized decision-making support systems of the Ukrainian pension system. In the course of the study, a number of numerical experiments were carried out, in which the correctness of the proposed method was investigated. The proposals presented in the paper will improve the stability of the pension system of Ukraine, including through a more accurate definition of the dynamics of the contingent of pension recipients and, accordingly, the costs of pension payments. The proposed models and methods can be used as part of decision-making support systems of state and public administration bodies to analyze the results of reforming the pension system.

MARKETING IN THE SPHERE OF PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION

The article reveals the relevance of using marketing tools in the field of public administration. The concept of «marketing» is analyzed, the approaches of modern scientists to this concept are considered. Today, there are about 2,000 definitions of the concept of «marketing», in which the main tasks, processes and concepts of marketing are reflected in various combinations. A significant impact on the variety of definitions of marketing was made by the variety of points of view on the goals, objectives and content of marketing and marketing activities. Quite often, definitions of marketing are based on concepts of an economic nature (for example, profit maximization, increasing income, market, competitiveness, etc.), on management concepts (planning, regulation, organization, etc.). Emphasis is placed on a large number of derivative concepts of marketing, including «state marketing», «territorial marketing», «regional marketing», etc. It is indicated that marketing in the field of public administration is, first of all, an approach in public administration that puts the satisfaction of consumers and producers of public services in a prominent place, which acts as a specific form of marketing implementation. More specifically, this is the marketing activity of management bodies and/or their representatives who act as producers, consumers or intermediaries (suppliers) in the processes of exchange of goods, services, ideas and other values. The tools of state marketing were proposed, and the results of the use of the tools were analyzed. An analysis of the main types of marketing in the field of public administration was carried out: macro-marketing; direct state marketing; state internet marketing; de-marketing This classification is generally correct, as it takes into account the subject composition and various goals of marketing in the field of public administration. It has been proven that marketing in the field of public administration is based on real mechanisms of market functioning, and is also focused on achieving the maximum social effect from increasing the degree of satisfaction of the needs of the country's population. It is proven that the state uses marketing tools in its policy. However, so far it has a single character, and the use of such tools should be systematic. The application of marketing in the field of public administration and the activities of public bodies can be a means of achieving and increasing the competitiveness of both the national economy and the entire national state.

An Innovative Approach to Closing the Loop in a Circular Plastic Economy by Upcycling Single-Use Post-consumer Thin Film Plastic Packaging Waste into Durable Plastic Products

AbstractThe waste system requires a circular economy business solution to upcycle millions of tonnes of contaminated post-consumer single-use multi-material, multilayer, plastic packaging films/foils. This waste is rarely collected for recycling, firstly because the market for such waste is new and very small, and secondly due to technical issues and cross-contamination at waste recycling facilities. Conventionally, two linear disposal routs exist, energy recovery through incineration or landfill, both having an economic cost. Being very lightweight, plastics are blown around and end up contaminating terrestrial and marine environments. This paper evaluates intrusion extrusion moulding technology with agglomeration to make products. With a 50-year first lifespan and nine more life cycles, they can be used multiple times as a substitute for wood and concrete. Public bodies can catalyse the intrusion extrusion moulding manufacturing industry by including such products during their procurement processes. The technology works and the business can be profitable.

The Catalog of Procedures as Part of Recordkeeping

The Regulation of the Government of the Republic of Serbia on recordkeeping of state administration bodies, which applies to other holders of public administration bodies from 2023, adapted recordkeeping to the needs of e-administration. The designed ePisarnica (Serbian erecords centre) as a unique software solution for recordkeeping and managing centralized registry of records, and a unique system for managing documents as a separate software solution, caused a number of changes in the way of managing registries on files in regard to the so far way of recordkeeping. The catalog of procedures is a new element in office business, it is a record of all administrative and non-administrative procedures of administration bodies and entities exercising public powers. The catalog also contains a codebook of records categories with retention periods. The paper will show the development and innovations in recordkeeping and the role of the catalog of proceedings in the central record of cases with special reference to the catalog of proceedings of provincial bodies.

The impact of economic, social and health crises on victims of domestic violence

Aim: The situation of victims of domestic violence and partner abuse becomes even more serious in crisis situations. There have been and are ongoing conflicts in the world, which have been scrutinised by economists, sociologists, criminologists, health professionals and lawyers alike in recent years. The latest related research worldwide provides a lot of important new information that can help prepare for the problem and provide professionally competent answers. Methodology: A selection of research conducted in different parts of the world. Summary reports were prepared to shed light on similarities and differences. Findings: It is clear from the processed literature that the individual forms of violence are connected in crisis situations and pose an even greater danger. Violence at the macro level, such as war, also increases violent conflict at the micro level. The crises caused by the fear of COVID, the lockdown, war conflicts, hunger, and the climate disaster spill over into family homes and make the victims of domestic violence and partner abuse even more vulnerable. Most of the processed materials analyse research born after COVID. The COVID–19 epidemic also provided many lessons regarding the management and prevention of the economic effects of future natural disasters and the associated increased domestic violence. Value: Analyses point to relationships that need further research and evaluation. In the future, macro- and micro-level violence research must be continued, common global results must be aggregated, and complex, global solutions must be developed. International organisations must continue to collect data and provide clear guidelines to public bodies and social organisations for the joint management of macro- and micro-level problems.

Actions by administrative authorities justified by a state of higher necessity

This article deals with the actions of the administrative proceeding authorities justified by a state of higher necessity. In Poland, the state of higher necessity does not constitute a title for the encroachment of public administration bodies on the rights and obligations of persons without a legal basis. In terms of its essence, the state of force majeure under the Administrative Procedure Code is not uniformly understood. It may be treated narrowly or broadly. However, regardless of its treatment, it conditions the application of special and very often inherently exceptional solutions. This includes issuing decisions with the application of special regulations in matters of peace, security and public order, and sometimes in situations dictated by an even differently understood state of higher necessity.

A students-as-partners-inspired approach to assessment rubric design

The global popularity of the students-as-partners (SaP) model in the higher education sector demonstrates that students, through their lived experiences, have valuable perspectives to contribute to shaping university curricular and co-curricular experiences. While there are numerous inherent benefits associated with facilitating SaP arrangements, incorporating such practices to influence curricular change can be difficult in highly regulated and accredited courses. This article presents a successfully trialled SaP-inspired model involving assessment rubric design in the Bachelor of Laws degree offered at Curtin University in Australia, which is subject to multiple layers of regulation at national and state levels by public and private bodies. The SaP-inspired model presented in the paper is a useful starting point for academics wanting to engage in SaP co-creation of curricular initiatives in contexts that are not especially conducive to SaP, for example, heavily regulated and accredited courses. This article further contributes to existing SaP literature as it presents qualitative and quantitative data collected from the students who engaged in the SaP-inspired model, as well as data collected from students who experienced the SaP-inspired outputs first hand. This article commences with a student reflection on the SaP-inspired model, written by Ryan Kirby who participated in the workshop and assisted in the creation of the assessment rubric and supplementary materials.

THE LEGAL NATURE OF PUBLIC PROCUREMENT AGREEMENTS AND THE FEATURES OF CONTRACTING IN ELECTRONIC FORM

In the article, based on the analysis of the contractual process, with the help of analytical, formal-logical and comparative legal methods, the legal nature of the peculiarities of public procurement contracts and their difference from other civil-law and economic contracts is clarified, as well as the peculiarities of concluding contracts in electronic form. The relevance of the article is due to the significant importance of contracts on public procurement and the study of the features of concluding contracts in electronic form for the interests of state customers and the state as a whole. In the course of the study, the properties and nature of public procurement contracts and the peculiarities of concluding contracts in electronic form were clarified in the analysis of compliance with the principle of freedom of contract from the beginning of the pre-contractual process stage to the moment of concluding the procurement contract. When clarifying the legal nature of contracts on public procurement and the features of concluding contracts in electronic form, an analysis of the possibility of applying the concept of “a contract as a source of law” to these contracts is carried out. According to the results of the study, the transparency and openness of the entire contractual process, which is controlled by the public and state bodies in order to meet the needs of customers acting in the interests of the state, has been established. Important features of the legal nature of procurement contracts are their mandatory planning, consensuality and payment. The subject structure of these contracts is special, given the competitive nature of these contracts, which are mostly concluded as a result of competitive procedures or simplified procurement. The state takes a special role in these treaties as “a kind of treaty agent.” When concluding contracts on public procurement, the principle of economic profitability and compliance with the requirements of the customer in accordance with current legislation applies. According to the results and conclusions of the study, participants of the contractual process - customers and participants (service providers, contractors, sellers of goods) and specialists in the field of law are suggested to use in their work. Based on the results of the research, it is proposed to supplement Article 640 of the Civil Code of Ukraine with the fifth paragraph, in which to define the registration of procurement contracts in the state treasury bodies, which is mandatory, but is not specified in any legislative act. Also, in paragraph five of the specified article, it is proposed to determine the moment of conclusion of the purchase contract, which is different from the moment of conclusion of other contracts.

Scientific concepts of development of public services in Ukraine

The scientific article is devoted to highlighting the state of scientific development of the provision of public services in Ukraine. The achievements of administrative scientists and approaches to understanding the categories of public and administrative services provided by public administration bodies are highlighted. The works of administrative scientists who paid considerable attention to the issue of providing administrative services in various spheres or to a specific subject were analyzed, namely: Bondarenko I.O. «Organizational and legal foundations of service provision in the field of customs affairs»; Bulkovskii T.O. «Quality management of the provision of administrative services by the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Ukraine; Vasylieva N.V. «Theoretical and methodological foundations of the formation and development of the system of providing administrative services at the regional level»; Voronyatnikov O.O. «Administrative and legal status of the State Migration Service of Ukraine»; Horbatyuk V.I. «Mechanisms for providing administrative services in the field of public finance management»; Dembytska S.L. «Legal principles of the provision of administrative services to the population of Ukraine by local self­government bodies»; Kostin O.Yu. «Administrative services provided by the State Border Service of Ukraine»; Mordvin I.A. «Administrative services of tax authorities of Ukraine»; V.V. Petovka «Legal regulation of the provision of administrative services in Ukraine»; Severin V.I. Administrative and legal principles of the provision of permit services by subjects of public administration; Skoromnyi Y.I. «Administrative services in agriculture of Ukraine; Sorokina I.S. «District State Administration as a Subject of Provision of Administrative Services»; Ter-Stepanyan O.V. «Administrative and legal principles of providing administrative services in the field of telecommunications and postal communication»; Khymychuk K.V. «Legal regulation of the provision of administrative services by the justice bodies of Ukraine», Pryimak L.I. «Public services in the activity of the State Tax Service of Ukraine: organizational and legal principles», etc. It was concluded that the attention of both scientists and practitioners is paid to the general principles of public service provision in Ukraine (the concept, essence of administrative services, principles of classification, quality assessment, etc.); the study of legal problems of public administration bodies has gained special development, the result of which is the introduction of a number of changes and additions to the current legislation that concerns the provision of public services; considerable attention is paid to the issue of providing public services in various areas or to a certain entity, etc. At the same time, the analysis of scientific publications, monographic studies, practical recommendations, as well as the results of the activities of public administration bodies on the provision of public services in Ukraine show that a complex scientific approach is needed to study the peculiarities of the provision of public services in Ukraine.

The norms of administrative law as a form of implementation of public administration

Being a systematically implemented activity of state authorities and local self-government, public administration is aimed at regulating social relations, ensuring a stable state and development of social processes in the interests of optimal functioning and development of society and the state. The norms of administrative law play an important role in this context. Through public administration, there are qualitative transformations of the methods and functions of state administration, which from abstract prescriptions of administrative law norms become means of performing the tasks of state administration in specific legal situations. On the one hand, public administration is implemented through the norms of administrative law, since it is the norms of administrative law that regulate the activities of subjects of public administration, form the basis of administration in all spheres of the life of society and the state. On the other hand, the main form of public administration is the adoption and implementation of administrative acts, which are understood as decisions or legally significant actionsofanindividualnature, adopted(committed) by an administrative body to resolve a specific case and aimed (directed) at the acquisition, change, termination or realization of rights and/ or duties of an individual (persons). An administrative act can be issued both by a representative of public authority performing public tasks/functions and by a subject of delegated powers - a subject of public administration. At the same time, the following acts: contain legal norms that specify the norms contained in legislative acts of higher legal force, and also provide a mechanism for their implementation; define typical rules of conduct in the field of public administration; establish the organizational and legal status of public administration bodies; establish the necessary prohibitions and restrictions; grant special rights and assign special duties in the field of public administration; the conditions of interaction and coordination of activities of public administration bodies are formed; implement socio-economic programs; do not resolve cases that arose in the body, the subject of which is the regulation of the internal activity of the public administration.

Unseen and unheard: how the Future Generations Act is not addressing the needs of the Welsh deaf community

The Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015 places a duty on public bodies to consider the impact of their decisions on future generations and to work towards achieving the seven well-being goals. Using doctrinal, socio-legal and autoethnographic methods, this article seeks to ascertain whether the needs of the Welsh deaf community have been considered. The Act does not explicitly mention them, and there is no evidence that public bodies have taken their needs into account when implementing the Act. The Welsh deaf community is marginalised in Welsh society, and this has been exacerbated by the closure of deaf schools and the decline of deaf clubs. The Welsh Government and the Future Generations Commissioner have a responsibility to ensure that the well-being of the Welsh deaf community is considered in the implementation of the Act and recommendations and thoughts are put forward on how they can achieve this.

Access to justice in Albania and EU policies

Abstract Access to justice is a fundamental element of the rule of law and a cornerstone of justice. Access to justice is the constitutional guarantee that enables individuals to have their violated rights protected. Governments must guarantee the right of every individual to address the court or other bodies of public administration. The right of access to the court in order to oppose an act of the public administration bodies is an autonomous fundamental right and an element of due process. This principle closely relates to another principle guaranteeing justice and democracy in society, which is the principle of the rule of law. Albania has not yet adopted a law that provides for the vital minimum; calculation of financial insufficiency threshold by considering only the income of a person rather than the necessary and obligatory living costs that really need free legal aid. National and international acts provide for Access to Justice, and the onus remains on the government to provide this right to its citizens. In 2022, the number of courts in Albania dropped significantly with the new judicial map, which significantly reduced the access of citizens. Why reduce the number of courts? This led to the increase in the stock of court files and the failure of judges to try cases within the legal deadlines. Albania should reflect without further delay and increase the number of courts, taking an example from other developed European countries, so that citizens may easily go to the courts

Analysis of foreign practice of forming indicators for auditing the efficiency of government agencies' activities

The article highlights the topical problem of analysing and managing the effectiveness of public bodies' performance on the basis of international experience. The introduction argues the significance of effective public administration to ensure socio-economic stability and security of national resources. The aim of the study is to adapt foreign methodologies and practices to optimise the use of public funds in Kazakhstan. The literature review presents performance audit as a result of the development of result-oriented budgeting and a factor contributing to the efficiency of public bodies. Key aspects are considered: the role of publicity and transparency in governance, the effectiveness of public audit bodies and the reduction of irregularities in budget spending. Special attention is paid to international standards and practical experience of performance audit, emphasising adaptation to the specifics of Kazakhstani legal regulation and national traditions. The article analyses the challenges faced by Kazakhstani authorities in implementing a system of performance audit indicators, including the choice and methodological justification of indicators, as well as their role in assessing the performance of state structures.

Risk management technology in the public sector: challenges and opportunities

The paper examines the importance of using effective risk management methods in the public sector, emphasizing the need for an integrated approach to this problem. The author emphasizes that public management mechanisms must be supported by appropriate technologies to ensure sustainable functioning. The use of ISO 31000 and ISSAI 9100 standards helps structure the risk management process and increase its effectiveness. Risk management should be based on the identification, assessment and response to risks and take into account the influence of various factors on the risk management process. The author also notes that risk management in the public sector is complicated by certain factors (frequent management changes, division of operating budgets and programs, lack of clear risk indicators, etc.). The analysis of the issue demonstrates that the system of assessment, management and risk reduction should play a key role in public administration. The main task of risk management as an element of public management is to make effective decisions, create the necessary conditions and plan actions taking risks into account to minimize their negative impact on planned results. As a result of the use of risk management technologies, it is possible to identify risks, determine factors and sources of risk, assess the degree and probability of occurrence of hazards and, ultimately, develop an optimal plan of management actions. The results of the study demonstrate that the issue of forming a risk management mechanism in the public sector requires further scientific research on the application of theoretical developments in the practical activities of public management and administration bodies of Ukraine. The paper also focuses on the issue of risk management in public sector organizations, and concludes that in order to assess the value, type and impact of risk, it is necessary to review the internal part of the organization and its management processes, as well as its environment. Such a review of risks should be complemented by increased risk awareness at each level of the management hierarchy and in the day-to-day activities of all employees of the organization. Thus, the need to use modern risk management technologies in the public sector is outlined in order to increase the effectiveness of the decisions made and minimize the negative impact of potential risks on the results of the work of management bodies.

PECULIARITIES OF INFORMATION AND ANALYTICAL SUPPORT IN DECISION-MAKING WITHIN GOVERNMENT BODIES

The modern world is increasingly entering the era of an information society, where the role of information becomes ever more significant. Information is accumulating rapidly and in large volumes, so quickly that people struggle to process and thoroughly comprehend the incoming information flow, leading to an overall reduction in usable information. In order to process relevant data effectively in the context of professional or other activities today, it is no longer sufficient to rely solely on traditional administrative experience to make informed management decisions. It is essential to incorporate scientific knowledge, comprehensive awareness, analytical and forecasting skills, as well as socio-political responsibilities, with an appropriate recognition of these processes. This is particularly relevant for public administration bodies—both central and regional levels of executive state power—and increasingly for local government authorities, which are gaining more authority as part of the decentralization process. In Ukraine, in particular, the ideology and framework for interaction between the state and society are changing, with an increased use of decentralization mechanisms that delegate specific functions and powers from state bodies (to varying degrees) to the level of territorial communities and even to civil society. The purpose of this article is to define the peculiarities of information and analytical support in the decision-making process within government bodies. The article systematizes approaches to information and analytical support in public administration. It identifies the subjects and objects of the information and analytical support system in state management processes and specifies the goals of such support. It justifies the need to highlight the key elements of the information and analytical support system for public administration. The article also outlines the principles guiding information and analytical activities conducted by government and local authorities. Levels of information and analytical work are established, taking into account the temporal dimension. Furthermore, the article identifies issues with information and analytical support in government bodies in Ukraine and suggests ways to address these challenges.

Система публічного адміністрування nоргівлі валютними цінностями

The article is devoted to the definition of the system of public administration of trade in currency values, the problem of theoretical substantiation of its elements, the main types of manifestations of the administration of this sphere, the study of the subjects of the implementation of administration functions, the study of the current legislation regulating this sphere of public-legal relations. Particular attention is paid to the definition of the content of the category “trade in currency values”, the disclosure of the legal nature and features of the category “public administration”, the outline of the approaches to the definition of its content and constituent elements available in domestic science. The definition of the system of public administration of trade in currency values and its constituent elements was carried out within the framework of the instrumental theory in law. It was established that, taking into account the initial provisions of the instrumental theory, the instruments of public administration of currency trading in Ukraine should be considered the norms of the current legislation, which determine the procedure for carrying out, in particular, the licensing of this activity, its control, taxation, the application of other management measures, prohibitions in this sphere, activity and law-enforcement acts of public administration bodies that carry out such management activities are empowered to impose administrative and financial sanctions. A proper definition of the category “administration of trade in currency values in Ukraine” is proposed. It was determined that the administration of trade in foreign exchange values takes place on the basis of complexity, reasonableness, flexibility of implementation and adaptability to the conditions of application of control and other measures, the expediency of their application, and orientation towards the consistent solution of current and long-termtasks of the state’s currency policy. The peculiarities of the functioning of subjects of the administration of currency trade in Ukraine, including the National Bank of Ukraine, the Ministry of Economy of Ukraine, the National Commission for Securities and the Stock Market, the State Tax Service of Ukraine and the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine in general, have been determined. It was found that the main subject of the administration of the outlined spheres of public legal relations is the National Bank of Ukraine. It is he who implements administrative, regulatory, control and other instruments in the field of currency relations. At the same time, other areas of implementation of the administration are disclosed, in particular, the activity of public administration bodies within the framework of taxation procedures of the researched activity is outlined.
