System of entities interaction on issues of ensuring public safety and order and the specific features of their administrative and legal status
Abstract
The article emphasizes that the system of subjects of interaction on issues of ensuring public security and order constitutes a holistic set of state bodies, institutions, services, as well as individual officials and public formations, which, in accordance with the current legislation of Ukraine, have the powers, resources and responsibilities to ensure the safety of citizens, protect public security and order, protect human rights and freedoms, and combat offenses.
It has been established that the key factor in the effectiveness of the system is the coordination of activities between its subjects. Interaction is implemented through the creation of joint operational headquarters, interdepartmental commissions, working groups, as well as on the basis of interdepartmental agreements and memoranda. However, in practice, there is still fragmentation in the regulatory provision of coordination, which creates certain difficulties in the implementation of comprehensive security measures, especially in conditions of emergency situations or mass events.
It is argued that at the current stage of development of Ukrainian society, civil society plays an important role in the public security system. The involvement of public organizations, initiative groups, voluntary groups, as well as municipal structures in the protection of law and order contributes to the strengthening of partnership relations between the authorities and citizens, the formation of trust in security institutions and the increase in the effectiveness of preventive work. It has been determined that the effectiveness of the system of subjects of interaction on public security issues largely depends on the institutional capacity of the state to provide the resource, personnel, technical and methodological basis for their activities.
