IMPLEMENTING “GOOD GOVERNANCE” PRINCIPLES IN THE PRACTICE OF PUBLIC CONTROL

Abstract

The concept of secure functioning of public administration is defined, which is understood as the proper performance of its functions, which involves the implementation of European principles and standards of good administration. In Ukraine, which aspires to become a full member of the European Union, the implementation of these principles is one of the priority tasks, as it means the full protection of human rights and freedoms. The normative enshrinement and content of these principles are analysed, including legality, non-discrimination, absence of abuse of power, respect for privacy, respect of confidentiality, legal certainty (judicial protection of violated rights) and appeal against decisions. It is concluded that the implementation of these principles requires constant and effective control over the activities of public administration, which is entrusted to all governmental entities, as well as members of the public. The peculiarities of certain types of such control are clarified: parliamentary, presidential, internal administrative (control of executive bodies), judicial, municipal and public.
