ON THE ISSUE OF LOCAL SELF-GOVERNMENT IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES
The article considers the process of creating the structure and powers of local self-government bodies in foreign countries, their management of all matters within their competence. The legal framework of local self-government in foreign countries includes constitutional provisions and the norms of the current legislation. It is worth noting that not all states regulate the position of municipal administration under the Constitution. As a rule, the tasks of creating municipalities are determined by special laws, as well as certain sectoral regulations. Moreover, in some States, a single law applies to all types of municipal authorities, and in some others, each type falls under a separate special law. The English model of municipal government was the subject of discussion. The authors made an attempt to study this model, determine its main parameters and properties, indicate the structure and competencies.
