IMPLEMENTATION OF FORMS AND METHODS OF ADMINISTRATIVE ACTIONS OF EXECUTIVE AUTHORITIES IN ORGANISING THE WORK OF FREE LEGAL AID SYSTEMS
Purpose of the paper: analysing the implementation of forms and methods of administrative actions of federal executive authorities and executive authorities of subjects of the Russian Federation in organising their own work as well that of other subjects related to rendering free legal aid to citizens and consideration of problems arising in this connection. Methods of study: formal logical, comparative legal, documents content analysis, interviewing. Results obtained: in this work, for the first time in Russian legal science, the conclusion is made that the unconditional implementation into life of government policy which provides for a need to omnilaterally and fully ensure the rights of the citizens of the Russian Federation to free legal aid, to comply with the provisions of Federal Law of the 21st of November 2011 No. 324-FZ “On Free Legal Aid in the Russian Federation” and other legal regulations, requires radically improving the activities in this field. Considerable attention is devoted to considering violations of systemic principles of setting up forward and feedback communication channels in systems rendering free legal aid to citizens. It is shown that efforts for developing a government and non-government free legal aid system taken by the government acting through the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation which is the competent executive authority in this field are far from being always efficient. The conclusions of the author are set forth: an insufficient development of forward and feedback communication between the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation and competent agencies of subjects of the Russian Federation in this field, other government agencies as well as other participants of the government and non-government free legal aid system creates significant obstacles for a more efficient implementation of the government policy and provisions of law in the area of social relations under consideration.
