Regulatory and legal ensuring optimization of local government bodies competencies

Vitaly Denega
Abstract

The legal framework for the formation of the competence of public authorities and local self-government bodies in Ukraine is studied. The content of the key laws of Ukraine on local self-government bodies and modern concepts of their activities is revealed. It is found that Ukraine lacks a unified conceptual vision of the status, competencies and responsibilities of local self-government bodies. It is established that the regulatory and legal framework for the functioning and development of local self-government bodies in Ukraine is formed by regulatory acts of various levels. It is noted that the regulatory and legal support for the activities of local self-government bodies needs to be improved, in particular, by finding effective and rational means of managerial influence on their functioning. These include improvement of the competent regulatory framework for the activities of local self-government entities, which will contribute to meeting the economic, political and social needs of people and creating conditions for their harmonious development
