Assessment of the activities of local self-government bodies in the field of fire safety: current problems and ways to solve them

The object of the study is the powers of local self-government bodies. The subject of the study is an assessment of the effectiveness of the activities of local self-government bodies both in general and in the field of fire safety in municipalities. In the article, the central place is given to the issues of evaluating the activities of local self-government bodies as elements of the control system for the implementation of the powers assigned to them. The authors consider the legal principles of the organization of local self-government of the legislation of the Russian Federation regulating this subject area. Based on the methods of system analysis, the authors have identified a range of problematic issues that may arise when the supervisory authority evaluates the implementation by local self-government authorities of the ability to organize primary fire safety measures. The analysis of the provisions of the regulatory legal acts of the Russian Federation, which consolidate both the general powers of local self-government bodies and the list of powers in the field of fire safety, is carried out. The scientific research devoted to the assessment of local self-government bodies and improving the efficiency of their work is considered. The main conclusions of the study suggest that the studied materials do not take into account the indicators of ensuring primary fire safety measures, which increases the likelihood of formalization of the results and violations of the mechanism for improving the efficiency of the subjects of legal relations. There is no regulation of the list of measures that make up the implementation of such authority as ensuring primary fire safety measures in the system complex. The novelty of the research is to find a way to solve the problem of evaluating the activities of local governments in the field of fire safety in the territory of the municipality. A special contribution of the authors is the systematization of the powers of local self-government bodies on fire safety, taking into account the nature of the activities carried out, the definition of a list of criteria for evaluating activities, taking into account factors that can influence its provision, the search for methodological approaches to evaluation. The necessity of developing a methodology for assessing local self-government bodies in the field of fire safety is determined.
