Scientific concept of legislation development as a forecast document of public policy

The necessity of conceptualization of law-making activity, providing for its implementation on the basis of common principles and rules in order to form a systematic legislative framework and ensure the complexity of legal regulation, has been argued. This involves the development and adoption by authorized entities of public power, public policy strategy or scientific concept of promising development of the legal array on the basis of clear scientific ideas about the future development and state of the legislative framework, the best ways to improve it.

It is emphasized that the essentially scientific concept should be considered as a system of scientific views on a certain phenomenon, the way of its cognition, understanding and interpretation. Preparation of a scientific concept implies the existence of appropriate analytical skills, skills and experience in a certain area of knowledge of social reality. Accordingly, the creation of the Concept for the Development of Legislation of Ukraine can be carried out by scientific institutions of a legal profile with experience in legislative, scientific and expert work and relevant scientific achievements on the problems of legal regulation of all spheres of public relations, the implementation of legislation in the aspect of determining its effectiveness. That is, they have a systematic idea of the state, the problems of the development of the system of law and the system of legislation that can predict their further development.

Therefore, the Concept of the development of legislation of Ukraine as a predictive document of a public-political nature should determine the strategy of actions of subjects of law-making in the implementation of plans, programs, reforms in the fi eld of law and the list of regulatory legal acts necessary for the development and adoption in chronological sequence, while maintaining the logic of the development of the relevant branch of legislation; priorities in socio-economic development; agree with previously adopted strategic documents (programs, plans, strategies, concepts) of the state level regarding the development of certain spheres of public relations or correct them; provide for the need to develop and adopt only objectively predetermined normative legal acts, avoid unnecessary legal influence. Thus, the Concept defines a plan of law-making activities for the long and short term, and on the other hand — is the result of large-scale monitoring of the current system of legislation.

Key words: concept, legislation, monitoring, scientific expertise, NAS of Ukraine, forecast document, public policy.
