Abstract:
The article concerns organization and functioning of the commissions on compliance with the requirements to service behavior and conflict of interests regulation in public service. The author notes that the new Provisions on Commissions basically prohibited to include into them representatives of "other organizations", as it was previously provided. On one hand, this is a positive change, since it allows to deal with the loophole, which existed earlier. In practice many state bodies used the term "other organizations" in order to invite as "independent experts" public officials from other state bodies to their commissions, which basically was a distortion of the idea of control of civil society over the procedure of rgulation of conflict of intersts, however, was in compliance with the letter of the law. On the other hand, it excluded the possibility to include representatives of organizations other than scientific and educational organizations (such as political parties, various associations and foundations, etc.) into the work of the commissions on compliance with the requirements to service behavior and conflict of interests regulation in public service. In the opinion of the author the weakest place of the Provisions is that the decisions of commission are not binding. In his opinon within the framework of hte program against corruption in public service, the legislators should amend these Provisions and provide for the collegiate decision on the presence or absence of conflict of interests. The issue should find similar resolution in respect to ther types of state and municipal service.

Abstract:
The article contains propositions for the implementation of conditions for the selection of cadres and greater efficiency of choice of staff, development of educational work and social guarantees for the staff of the Departments of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation, as well as on achievement of greater trust of the people towards the police. It is noted that financial difficulties and everyday problems cause officers to commit violations, and difficult working conditions serve as an excuse for such officers. It is noted that one of the lawful rights of officers is their right for reward. Manipulation of the managing officers with their decisions to punish or to reward their staff are somewhat alike to abuse of discretion, therefore, there appears an opportunity for "buy and sell" of such benefits. All of the officers committing corruption acts in the Department of Internal Affairs of the Russian Federation may be divided into two categories. The first category includes officers, who committed crimes with the use of their official positions, and the second category includes persons wishing to achieve certain official positions with the use of corruption activities. The authors provide measures, which are capable of changing the attutude of the population towards the Departments of Internal Affairs, and to provide for greater trust of the people towards the police, to form the conditions for interest and competition for the positions in the DIA, and improving the status of police officers in society.

Abstract:
Topicality of the issue is due to the current reform of the judiciary in Russia, which is aimed at the formation of independent and fair judiciary. The judicial legal reform facilitates the further advancement of the normative legal basis, and the legislative basis is constantly being amended. The number of claims of natural persons and legal entities in courts becomes greater, and there is a practical discussion of the possibility to divide the judicial system according to the spheres of their competence. Currently within the framework of judicial reform the Draft Federal Law N. 246960 6 "The Administrative Judicial Procedural Code of the Russian Federation" was moved to the State Duma of the Russian Federation on March 28, 2013. It is aimed at the legal regulation of administrative judicial procedure in courts of general jurisdiction, while not encompassing the entire range of administrative judicial procedures, since the proceedings on the administrative offences cases is outside its scope. That is why, there are contradictions, and they shall not be abolished with adoption of the Code. The situation appears again, when the administrative judicial procedure shall be regulated by three Codes, which does not promote unified and efficient administrative justice.
