Abstract
The relevance of this study is that increasing the dynamics of the social and economic development of the state is impossible without effective public administration, which is largely associated with administrative and procedural legislation. We give a number of arguments justifying the positive role of administrative regulations adopted in the course of the administrative reform in the first decade of this century for the performance of public functions and the provision of public services in improving the efficiency of the executive bodies and their officials. This study also analyzes, on the basis of prosecutorial checks, the qualitative content of administrative regulations of the executive bodies of the Tambov region administration, which enshrines provisions that are not in accordance with applicable law: assignment to the applicant of an obligation not provided by law for the provision of documents not established by federal and regional legislation, as well as to be received in the framework of interagency information interaction; areas of reason for refusing to provide services that were different from the law were introduced. Based on the scientific and theoretical studies of foreign practice, we substantiated the need for the adoption of a federal law “On Administrative Procedures and Administrative Acts”, which would enshrine universal rules for the implementation of administrative procedures, the procedure for adopting administrative acts, and the general principles of administrative procedures that will guide all administrative authorities on the territory of the Russian Federation, which would contribute to the establishment of law and order in the field of public administration.
