The problem of legal regulation of interaction between the prosecutor’s office and public administration entities on the issues of performing the assigned functions has been studied. The research is based on studying such legislative acts as the Constitution of Ukraine, Laws of Ukraine “On Central Executive Agencies”, “On the Prosecutor’s Office”, “On the Status of MPs of Ukraine”, “On Temporary Investigative and Special Commissions of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine” and other legislative acts and bylaws regulating the interaction of the prosecutor’s office with state authorities. The interaction of the prosecutor’s office with public administration entities has been defined as the procedure of appeal of the prosecutor’s office to the executive authorities, which is regulated by law norms, as well as the procedure of consideration of the appeals of MPs and representatives of the executive authorities in the prosecutor’s office. The authors have established the following main directions of the interaction between the prosecutor’s office and the state authorities: consideration of Mps inquiries by the prosecutor’s office, participation of prosecutors in the work of investigative commissions and temporary special commissions of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, interaction of the prosecutor’s office with the Accounting Chamber of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine, prosecutors’ representation of state interests in the court by presenting lawsuits within administrative, commercial or civil proceedings, interaction of the prosecutor’s office with the judicial branch of power in the process of judicial system, coordination of law enforcement activity, informing the representative authorities about the results of the activity of the prosecutor’s office and the rule of law in the state and individual territorial community. Improvement of legal principles of cooperation between prosecutor’s office and public administration entities can take place in such areas as bringing the provisions of the Law of Ukraine “On the Prosecutor’s Office” in line with the Constitution of Ukraine, development of a common form of request to all prosecutor’s office in regard to represent the interests in court, establishment of uniform terms for all authorities to consider their requests by the prosecutor’s office, establishment of a separate norm in the Law of Ukraine “On the Prosecutor’s Office” that would regulate the procedure and conditions of coordination of law enforcement activities of other authorities by the prosecutor’s office.

Based on the problem situation conditioned by indeterminacy of institutional position of the standards of law enforcement ethics within the mechanism of contemporary law enforcement regulation, the author attempts to analyze the legal nature of the above standards. The study reveals that the legal nature of standards of law enforcement ethics is conditioned by the necessity to protect the identity of citizens and the law enforcement system itself from the negative impact produced by various forms of irregular conduct by subjects of law enforcement. As a result of comparing the standards of law enforcement ethics and the rules of law the author establishes that according to the technical-legal forms of their external expression and other attributes, as well as their regulatory potential, the standards of law enforcement ethics are comparable to the status of the rules of law. The study permits us to conclude that the standards of law enforcement ethics possess the classificatory identity typical of the protective rules of law represented by relations in the field of law enforcement activity. This identity is conditioned by the specificity of the subject of their regulation. The standards of law enforcement ethics are of subsidiary significance as they supplement and develop standards of status laws in matters of legal regulation of the moral aspect of the law enforcement activity.

The article investigates the main features of state service in the law enforcement sphere and the place of state service in administrative and legal regulation mechanism. The goals of the work are as follows: to consider state service in the law enforcement sphere as a single legal category, to reveal its essence and characteristic features as a social system, to provide a scientific classification of its constituent elements and disclose their administrative and legal content. We highlight the following main functional features of those state bodies the service in which can be called law enforcement activity: state and power-based nature of activity, exercising executive and administrative powers, special functional and target purpose, application of special measures of legal influence based on the use of persuasion and coercion methods, and a special legal status. We conclude that practical solution to the question of classifying state service in a particular state body as law enforcement activity may be found through legislative definition of the concept of law enforcement activity of the state, law enforcement functions of state authorities, and the system of state authorities exercising law enforcement functions. Key words: state service, administrative and legal regulation, law enforcement activity, law enforcement functions, legal enforcement.

The scientific article is focused on the legal regulation of administrative supervision of the National Police of Ukraine. The purpose of the study is to define the concept and features of police administrative supervision and develop propositions for amending the existing legislation regulating law enforcement activity. The relevance of the chosen topic is the fact that police officers’ powers to monitor the rule of law in the fields of economy and public administration can directly affect the rights and freedoms of individuals and the legitimate interests of legal entities. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the doctrinal definition of the concept of police administrative supervision and its features and the development of propositions for amending the Law of Ukraine "On the National Police". The publications of scholars who studied the problems of police administrative supervision in various sectors of the economy and public administration were studied. The norms of legislative acts that establish the supervisory powers of the police are analyzed. It is concluded that police administrative supervision is systematic monitoring of the compliance with Ukrainian legislation in the fields of economy, public administration, public life, and the application of coercive measures to offenders to stop the offense and bring them to justice. Features of police administrative supervision, such as regularity, legality, formality, publicity, have been identified. Police administrative supervision is protective. Its purpose is to stop and prevent violations of Ukrainian law. Administrative supervision over the compliance with the law is carried out in the areas of public order and public safety, public administration, business, drug trafficking, firearms and ammunition, road safety, and other sectors of the economy and public administration. It is offered to make appropriate amendments to the Art. 2 of the Law of Ukraine "On the National Police". The results of the study can be used in lawmaking, law enforcement practice, and the educational process.

The author of the article has stated that the land relations reform and the start of decentralization led to changes in the system of public administration agencies in the field of land protection and expanded their powers, for example, to provide registration services. The author has paid attention to the fact that the current Land Code of Ukraine (hereinafter referred to as the LC of Ukraine), in particular the Section VII “Administration in the field of land use and protection”, provides the execution of only management functions in the field of land protection by public administration agencies. It has been emphasized that there were no complex studies in Ukraine concerning theoretical and applied problems of legal regulation of service relations, in particular the provision of registration services, in the field of land protection with the participation of public administration agencies, which would be based on the current legislation. The author of the article has stated that the provision of services in the field of land protection is a new type of activity for public administration agencies in the field of land protection. Service legal relations ensure the realization of private and public interests and are formed in those areas of land use and protection management, where public and private land interests are interdependent. Thus, the owner is interested in fixing and publicly announcing his land rights in the field of state registration of land rights. But parties concerned cannot ensure their private interests without the assistance of the state. Thus, the state, represented by public administration agencies, guarantees that the state registration of land rights is in the interest of one and all. It has been noted that currently the legal regulation of service relations for the provision of registration services in the field of land protection has not been enshrined either in any general regulatory act, which is the Law of Ukraine “On Administrative Services” gated from September 6, 2012 No. 5203-VI, or in special regulatory acts, such as the LC of Ukraine and the Law of Ukraine “On Land Protection”. Such circumstances necessitate a change in the existing approaches to the legal regulation of service relations for the provision of registration services in the current legislation and to enshrine provisions for providing the registration services in the field of land protection by public administration agencies in the LC of Ukraine, namely in the Section VII “Administration in the field of land use and protection” and in the Law of Ukraine “On Land Protection”.

We consider the importance of advocateship in the process of protecting human rights and freedoms, the interests of organizations, society and the state. We indicate the grounds and circumstances of the provision by lawyers of qualified legal assistance to certain categories of citizens, including on a non-refundable basis. We reveal the importance of the professional and business qualities of a lawyer, as a representative of the lawyer community, in providing legal assistance. We pay attention to the high moral, ethical and legal nature of the lawyers activities, in particular, the moral requirements for the lawyer personality; activity in defending the interests of the grantor (client); legal guarantees for the independence of a lawyer and others. Advocateship, as an institution that does not belong to state power, but to civil society, which has such characteristics as autonomy, independence, cor-poratism, self-government, has a significant role in the law enforcement ac-tivity of the state. Envisage to increase the role of the lawyer community in advocacy, to increase the qualifications of lawyer personnel, expand the rights of lawyers in providing legal assistance, and significantly improve the information and technical base. A number of legislative transformations to increase the effective functioning of the lawyer community, enhancing the professional advocateship independence of the Russian Federation, can be-come productive only when the state ensures the trust of citizens on the part of the lawyer community, it is also necessary to end impunity in the advocacy sphere, and increase the level of legal order and legality, to strengthen the supervision quality of the rights and freedoms of man and citizen observance institution.

Introduction: the article considers problematic issues related to the work of management subjects (managers) and attestation commissions in situations when an employee of the penal system of the Russian Federation is dismissed due to the loss of trust. The aim of this study is to identify gaps in the current legislation on the service that arise when a measure of responsibility such as dismissal due to the loss of trust is applied; another aim consists in formulating proposals for improving legislation in this area. Methods: methodological basis of our study is represented by a set of methods of scientific cognition, among which the main place belongs to formal-logical, system-structural, and comparative-legal methods. Results: the study has shown that there are many problematic issues in the law enforcement practice regarding the dismissal of employees due to the loss of trust. The norms of the law do not clearly distinguish the components of corruption offenses for which an employee is subject to dismissal due to the loss of trust or may be brought to another type of liability. The issue regarding the status of the decision of the attestation commission remains unresolved; its decision is of an advisory nature, but at the same time, it is fundamental for making a decision by the employee’s superior. There is an ongoing discussion on the composition of the attestation commission; and options for the selection of independent experts are proposed. Discussion: dismissal due to the loss of trust is a specific type of disciplinary penalty, and its implementation is carried out by authorized management entities within the framework of disciplinary proceedings. The procedure for making a decision on the dismissal of employees of the penal system due to the loss of trust needs further improvement in its legal and organizational aspects, taking into account modern law enforcement and judicial practice.

The authors examine the connection between law enforcement activities, law enforcement science and the scientific system of criminal policy, their mutual presumption and interaction. The law enforcement activities serve to uphold law, order and public security against unlawful human behaviours. The criminalisation of certain types of behaviour is a quasi fundamental resultant of law enforcement activity, which may provide criminal policy with a guideline by realising activities dangerous to society, or antisocial during its operation. In addition to the above, however, the relationship is multi-directional as the state receives information on the current status of crimes in the course of the completion of law enforcement tasks, and the quality of the completion of law enforcement tasks fundamentally influences the course of crimes.

The article deals with the research of the issues of pension provision for police officers as a component of their social security. Since the category of police employees is new to Ukraine, its significance for labour law and, accordingly, the value of the police for the society, whose citizens they protect, has been characterized. An analysis of statutory acts regulating the pension provision for law enforcement bodies' employees has been carried out. The concept of a seniority pension for police officers has been defined as a monthly payment from the Pension Fund of Ukraine intended to compensate for lost pay and allowances and granted upon resignation for the purpose of maintaining living standards of citizens having the seniority of a specified duration in law enforcement bodies, the National Police, the Court Protection Service, the State Fire Protection Service, the State Service of Ukraine for Special Communications and Information Protection, bodies and divisions of the Civil Protection Service, the Tax Police or the State Penitentiary Service of Ukraine, whose occupational incapacity is presumed to set in before they reach the retirement age established by law for awarding an old-age pension. The author proposes the adoption of a new law on pensions precisely for police officers. For in contrast to the definition of Militia (the name the police were called in the Soviet Ukraine and during a number of the post-Soviet years) as an armed body of the executive branch, the Law of Ukraine "On the National Police" defines the police as a central body of the executive branch that serves the society by ensuring the protection of human rights and freedoms, combating crime, maintaining public security and order. According to the author, the legal regulation of the pension provision for servicemen and police employees by a single statutory act (law) does not correspond to the realities of today. Conclusions have been formulated on supplementing the Law of Ukraine "On the National Police" with the provision that restrictions of guarantees of social and legal security of the law enforcement bodies' employees shall not be allowed when adopting laws and bylaws, as well as when making decisions by law enforcement agencies of the state. Special attention has been paid to calculating the amount of police officers' seniority pension. The procedure for determining the amount of pension depending on the length of service has been analysed. The author believes that lowering the limit of the seniority pension for law enforcement bodies' employees, including police employees, initially from 90 down to 80 per cent and then from 80 down to 70 per cent of their pay and allowances is a violation of the Constitution of Ukraine. Constitutional rights and freedoms are guaranteed by the state and cannot be revoked when adopting new laws or amending existing ones. No narrowing of the content and scope of existing rights shall be allowed. The author proposes to work out a new Procedure for recalculating pensions granted to police officers. Outdated statutory acts governing the procedure for recalculating pensions granted to law enforcement bodies' employees contain controversial provisions, have conflicting points, do not comply with the Constitution of Ukraine and the realities of today, and are therefore subject to repeal.
