The article analyzes the opinions presented in scientific sources regarding the definition of political positions in the executive branch and the administrative and legal status of employees holding these positions. Instead, the specifics of the implementation of the administrative-legal status of employees holding political positions in the executive branch are studied in administrative science piece by piece. Particular attention is paid to the fact that administrative law consistently and persistently considers all aspects of the acquisition and implementation of the administrative and legal status of civil servants and employees of local self-government bodies. A terminological distinction is made between the terms «professionalism» and «qualifications». Professionalism means that a position in the executive branch is associated with a specific profession. For a candidate applying for the relevant position, additional requirements are imposed regarding his professional abilities. On the other hand, professionalism means that the person applying for the position must be qualified enough to carry out their duties effectively. Thus, “professionalism” is characteristic of all employees holding administrative positions in the system of executive bodies, and “professionalism”, in our opinion, is a common criterion for all categories of civil servants. It is proposed to highlight the following features of the civil service performed by persons holding political positions in executive bodies: 1) provides for the constitutional and legal procedure for entering and passing political service (constitutional and legal status of employees holding political positions); 2) the powers assigned to political positions in executive bodies require the availability of appropriate administrative and legal forms and mechanisms for their implementation (administrative and legal status of employees holding political positions); 3) employees holding political positions are not subject to disciplinary responsibility, and therefore the structure of their administrative and legal status does not provide for legal responsibility; 4) the professionalism of political figures in the system of executive authorities is manifested in a harmonious combination of their political and administrative activities.

The article reviews the scientific positions on understanding the concept of "legal responsibility", considers it as a positive and retrospective liability, and also proposes its own definition of legal liability of a civil servant. Emphasis is placed on distinguishing the civil servant's legal liability from the ordinary employee's legal liability, since the civil servant's legal responsibility is at the heart of each official's official activity, follows from the powers conferred, is a guarantee of the civil servants' observance of the law, civil service principles and their proper performance ulcers, etc. The legal responsibility of a civil servant is considered, which is quite complex and multifaceted in contrast to the legal liability of ordinary citizens, since it is connected with the powers of the individual, the performance of their individual actions and functions, the exercise of administrative and administrative-legal influence on public relations in the state. Accountability of civil servants has both general and specific features of legal liability. The scientist has identified a number of features that distinguish the legal liability of civil servants from the legal liability of ordinary workers. Such features include: 1) the legal liability of a civil servant is characterized by an increased level of liability of such persons for similar crimes, offenses or disciplinary offenses as provided by the current legislation; 2) increased possibilities for applying the head of the department, directly subordinate to a civil servant, to have powers to identify disciplinary actions and to bring a civil servant to disciplinary responsibility; 3) the broad effect of the legal liability of a civil servant for the offenses committed; 4) the purpose of legal responsibility consists not only in punishment of the guilty person, restoration of the violated rights and interests of the person, carrying out preventive activity, but also in ensuring in the further proper fulfillment by the civil servant of his official duties, prevention of behavior which could discredit the public service and the public employee as a whole; 5) features of its classification. The author of the article emphasizes that applying to a civil servant a certain type of legal responsibility not only condemns a civil servant by applying to him a state coercion, but also encourages other persons to behave properly and properly perform their official duties, to prevent committing actions that directly prohibited by applicable law.

The author highlights the issues related to the essence and implementation of the legal status of a law enforcement official. These issues are the focus of attention of scientists (primarily specialists in administrative law), legislators, civil society, as well as of the employees themselves. The terms «legal status» and «legal situation» are analysed in details. The issues related to the definition of the legal status of a law enforcement official of Mongolia are considered. The author presents a wide range of opinions of lawyers on the content of the concept of «legal status of a law enforcement official», gives various classifications of the term of legal status, and presents his vision of this problem and its solution with regard to law enforcement agencies of Mongolia. The author agrees with the point of view of those specialists who point out that the specificity of the legal status of a law enforcement official, his rights and duties, requires adopting other components, such as responsibility, which are quite justified. The author also underlines that there is almost no mention of the key-concept «a law enforcement official» in Mongolian legislation. This led to a conclusion that this concept should be legalized before being considered in details. The research also briefly discusses the main results of the extensive work on reforming police in 2011–2015. The author notes that the absolute following the example of Western countries was not appropriate. Thus, the author criticizes some aspects of the transition of the police from a special service to a public one, for example, the procedure for assigning special ranks by positions held, which led to an outflow of specialists from the law enforcement sphere to other areas. The author concludes that legally fixed features characterizing the legal status of a law enforcement official are far from exhaustive and require further rethinking, research, improvement in law-making and law enforcement.

The article examines the problem of delimitation of legal status: official and official. The category of legal status is an important component for every participant in public relations, because such a status will depend on the scope of his civil rights and responsibilities, which is especially relevant for an official or official. It was found that today the issues of the studied categories, namely «legal status of an official» and «legal status of an official» still remain relevant because there is no unanimous position for their delimitation. It is clear that the categories of «official», «official» occupy a leading position in the field of public administration, criminal law, litigation, other areas of law and legislation. These categories should be key in the preparation of regulations relating to the civil service, regulation of law enforcement agencies, determining the legal responsibility of persons holding certain positions in the civil service. Conclusions are made where, given that at the legislative level there is no single definition of «official» and «official», and the proposed definitions in legal science are mainly sectoral in nature, the priority is: first, the definition in the Law «On basics of civil service», which must be adopted, the concepts of «official» and «official» and their features. The task of today's legislator is the need to differentiate them. Therefore, when determining the grounds for assigning persons to the categories of officials or officials should be guided by the relevant legislation governing certain relations. Regarding the legal status of officials and officials, the conclusion was that a significant factor in distinguishing these categories, unfortunately, is not legal status, because without a clear distinction between the basic concepts of «official» and «official», we can not fully describe the differences in this status. Keywords: service, position, legal status, civil service, official, employee, official

A health resort treatment facility is a particular medical entity that performs therapeutic activities because it is located in a health spa resort municipality which has the status of a spa health resort. Only the spa health resort municipality implements its own tasks related to the maintenance of health spa functions, and creates the conditions for this type of health facility to function and to develop the municipal infrastructure in order to meet the needs of people staying in the municipality for spa resort treatment. The basic, but not the sole, purpose of establishing and maintaining a health resort treatment facility is medical activity consisting in providing spa patients with health services performed as part of spa treatment integrated into the health care system. The study focuses on how the definition of this type of facility has evolved in the legislation and the directions of changes that have occurred as a consequence of the change in the legal status, as well as other important terms referring directly to the spa treatment facility. The presentation of its various types and tasks performed by these establishments enables the identification of numerous interpretation problems related to their qualification. Due to the diversified ownership structure of these medical entities, reference is made to their organizational and legal forms, with a demonstration of the possible consequences that result from transforming these establishments into health resort companies. The current epidemic in Poland allows the scope of limitations in the operation of spa treatment facilities to be shown and, consequently, changes in the organization of some types of these facilities.

The article attempts to differentiate between public administration as a subject of legal relations and as a relevant activity, a function that is inherent in it. It is stated that public administration as a separate legal institution within the framework of administrative law is at the stage of development in post-Soviet countries, including Ukraine, competing with theories and sciences of public administration, which a large number of experts recognize as inappropriate with modern public administration. and administration. At the same time, there is no unanimity of views, terminology is used, which has a double meaning. In the administrative law of Western European and North American countries, public administration is mainly defined as a set of bodies and institutions that exercise public power through the implementation of laws, regulations and other actions in the public interest. There are a large number of scientific definitions of public administration and public administration. The definition of "public administration" has the following closely related meanings - an integrated state apparatus (policies, rules, procedures, systems, organizational structures, staff, etc.), which is funded by the state budget and is responsible for managing and coordinating the executive branch and its interaction with other stakeholders in the state, society and the external environment; - management and implementation of various government measures related to the implementation of laws, regulations and decisions of the government and management related to the provision of public services. Thus, it would be logical to follow a structural approach, according to which public administration will be considered primarily as a set of state bodies and other public institutions designed to organize the effective functioning of society.

The status of a consumer partnership as one of organizational and legal forms of juridical entities, that is also one of organizational and legal forms of citizens’ more active participation in state-management and their personal needs satisfaction is determined in the article. The norms of the Civil Code and the State Code of Ukraine, the Law of Ukraine “On Cooperation” and the “On Consumer Cooperation” are analyzed. According to the mentioned documents an independent, democratic citizens’ organization who unite in order to conduct common management for the sake of improving their economic and social status on the basis of voluntary partnership and mutual support are considered to be a consumer partnership. The above mentioned regulatory legal acts provide for different features of consumer partnerships. The features of consumer partnerships provided by current legislation are not civil and legal in their nature. Such a situation has become a legacy of the fact that the principles of legal regulation of the system of consumer partnerships, formed in the USSR, has not almost been changed yet. The very fact is that there is a need to develop a new legal model of consumer partnerships, which structure will take into account modern tendencies of the development of European legislation. It’s possible to formulate a list of civil and legal features of consumer cooperative partnerships that will distinguish them among any other partnerships. Namely they are: non-entrepreneurial legal status of consumer partnership; sufficiency of the main rights of the members of a partnership; subjects of property right of the members of a partnership; responsibility of the members of a partnership for obligations of a consumer partnership. All these features allow us to distinguish consumer partnerships as a separate organizational and legal form of non-entrepreneurial partnerships. The following definition of a consumer cooperative partnership can be proposed: it is a non-entrepreneurial cooperative partnership which members have a right for a concern. The size of this concern is determined as a set of unit and additional contributions. The members are liable within the value of the unit and are entitled to profit within the limits determined by law. Key words: cooperative, consumer partnership, features of consumer partnerships.

This chapter examines the difference between John Locke's definition of a person [P], considered as a kind of thing, and his definition of a subject of experience of a certain sophisticated sort [S]. It first discusses the equation [P] = [S], where [S] is assumed to be a continuing thing that is able to survive radical change of substantial realization, as well as Locke's position about consciousness in relation to [P]'s identity or existence over time as [S]. It argues that Locke is not guilty of circularity because he is not proposing consciousness as the determinant of [S]'s identity over time, but only of [S]'s moral and legal responsibility over time. Finally, it suggests that the terms “Person” and “Personal identity” pull apart, in Locke's scheme of things, but in a perfectly coherent way.
