The relevance of the article is that to obtain the status of mandatory for implementation, these conceptual provisions must be enshrined in the relevant regulations. Therefore, in order to increase the effectiveness of the criminological policy of the state in the activities of individual bodies of criminal justice, it is necessary to search for ways to improve the legislative mechanism of its implementation.

Some legislative steps to increase the effectiveness of the implementation of criminological policy of the state in the activities of certain bodies of criminal justice. The search for legislative steps to increase the effectiveness of the implementation of criminological policy of the state in the activities of certain bodies of criminal justice. It is concluded that in the current CPC of Ukraine there are no direct rules authorizing the criminal justice authorities to prevent activities. First of all, it concerns the identification of the causes and conditions that contribute to the commission of criminal offenses and the taking of measures within their competence to eliminate them. That is, investigators and investigators have the power to identify and eliminate the causes and conditions of crime, according to the Law of Ukraine "On the National Police", and the mechanism for exercising this power, which should be contained in the CPC of Ukraine, is absent. To increase the effectiveness of the implementation of criminological policy of the state it is advisable, in particular: in Article 1, Part 2 of Article 9, para. 3 part 1 of Art. 22 of the Law of Ukraine "On the National Police" to replace the phrase "combating crime" with "crime prevention". In addition, in Article 2 of the same Law, one of the tasks of the police, instead of "combating crime", it is desirable to define "crime prevention"; The Law of Ukraine “On the Security Service of Ukraine” should be supplemented with guarantees regarding non-interference in the activities of SBU employees as follows: “Any written or oral instructions, requirements, instructions, etc. addressed to the Security Service of Ukraine or its employees proceedings and not provided for by the Criminal Procedure Code of Ukraine, are illegal and not enforceable. In case of receiving such instructions, requirements, instructions, etc., the employee of the Security Service of Ukraine shall immediately inform the head of the Security Service of Ukraine in writing".

The article is devoted to the study of the administrative and legal status of law enforcement agencies as subjects of financial security of the state, in the context of which the author answers three questions: 1) «What is meant by the category» administrative and legal status?»; 2) “Which law enforcement agencies are directly involved in ensuring the financial security of the state?; 3) «What competence do these law enforcement agencies have in the field of financial security and what are their responsibilities?». Having defined the content of such categories as “status”, “legal status”, “administrative-legal status”, the author proposes to understand the administrative-legal status of a law enforcement body as a subject of financial security as an administrative law provision of a law enforcement body, powers and responsibilities in the field of financial security of the state. The definitions of the concept of «law enforcement agencies» are analyzed, the lack of a common vision of the content of their activities at both the legislative and doctrinal levels is stated, their features are formulated. It is determined that law enforcement agencies that are the subjects of financial security of the state can include only the National Police of Ukraine, the Security Service of Ukraine, the tax police of the State Fiscal Service of Ukraine and the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine, the Prosecutor’s Office, the State Bureau of Investigation and the State Audit Office. Through the prism of their tasks and functions as categories that concisely and meaningfully express their competence and authority, the main features of their administrative and legal status are identified. It is concluded that the specialized legislation of Ukraine at the level of laws and regulations enshrines elements of the administrative and legal status of law enforcement agencies as subjects of financial security of the state, but overall their administrative and legal status is regulated in some fragments, which requires improvement of Ukrainian legislation. research area and is an additional argument for the creation of a single law enforcement agency the Bureau of Economic Security of Ukraine.

The author has studied the current state of the regulatory base on the prevention of the occurrence and spread of the COVID-19coronavirus disease in Ukraine and the practice of its application by authorized entities for the implementation of state policy in the field of health care and the protection of the rights and freedoms of citizens. The system of public administration in the field of ensuring the sanitary and epidemiological well-being of the population has been analyzed. The features of the distribution of powers of state agencies in this area after the liquidation of the State Sanitary and Epidemiological Service of Ukraine have been researched. The author concludes that the existing system of state agencies that carry out sanitary and epidemiological control in Ukraine requires further improvement by adopting a decree of the Government of Ukraine on the functioning of the State Sanitary and Epidemiological Service. The author of the article has also identified gaps in the current legislation of Ukraine on administrative offenses, which regulates the procedure for holding accountable for violation of sanitary and anti-epidemic rules. These shortcomings primarily relate to the content of the Code of Ukraine on Administrative Offenses, which contains the names of non-existent state agencies or their officials, the provisions of repealed laws or other by-laws. Based on the analysis of the laws of Ukraine and government decrees on the implementation of sanitary and anti-epidemiological measures, the author has formulated propositions aimed at regulating the legal status of the State Sanitary and Epidemiological Service; improvement of administrative proceedings in the field of health care and violation of quarantine rules; amending the list of agencies and officials authorized to consider cases of administrative offenses for the violation of sanitary rules; optimization of the mechanism of prosecution for failure to comply with legal orders of entities implementing the state sanitary and anti-epidemiological policy; expanding the list of powers of the National Police for the implementation of administrative detention, verification of documents and police custody within the sequestration.

Abstract Amendment to the Act on special rules of preparation and implementation of investment in public roads resulted in an accelerated mode of acquisition of land for the development of roads. The decision to authorize the execution of road investment issued on its basis has several effects, i.e. determines the location of a road, approves surveying division, approves construction design and also results in acquisition of a real property by virtue of law by the State Treasury or local government unit, among others. The conducted study revealed that over 3 years, in this mode, the city of Krakow has acquired 31 hectares of land intended for the implementation of road investments. Compensation is determined in separate proceedings based on an appraisal study estimating property value, often at a distant time after the loss of land by the owner. One reason for the lengthy compensation proceedings is challenging the proposed amount of compensation, unregulated legal status of the property as well as imprecise legislation. It is important to properly develop geodetic and legal documentation which accompanies the application for issuance of the decision and is also used in compensation proceedings.

In the Southeast Asian context, legal status is ambiguous; it enlarges some risks while lessening others. As is true in many contexts across the Global South, while documentation clearly serves the interest of the state by offering them greater control over migrant bodies, it is less clear that it serves the goals, needs, and well-being of migrants.
