The article examines the legal and practical aspects of implementing legislative initiative in Ukraine. The right to initiate legislation represents a fundamental component of a democratic system. A detailed analysis of the content of the right to legislative initiative was conducted, with the results indicating that the content of the right to legislative initiative encompasses a comprehensive range of issues. The aforementioned rights are subject to variation depending on the subject matter in question, namely the manner in which the right is realised. The differences in the content of the legislative initiative rights of various subjects are due to the necessity of differentiating the legal regulation of functions, which is essential for the implementation of the subjects' rights in the mechanism of state operation. Furthermore, the author puts forth a proposal to structure the content of the legislative initiative right by delineating two distinct categories of powers vested in the subjects of this right. The initial section delineates the powers exercised by the subject in relation to their own legislative initiative and the obligations that accompany the submission of an initiative to the Verkhovna Rada. The subsequent section outlines the avenues for participation of subjects of the legislative initiative right in the legislative process with regard to initiatives proposed by other subjects of this right. On the basis of the analysis, it was concluded that the mechanisms of the exercise of the right of legislative initiative in Ukraine should be improved and the transparency and efficiency of the legislative procedure should be increased. Different approaches to determining the forms and content of the exercise of the right of legislative initiative by different subjects are contained in the different Laws. The issues related to the exercise of the right of legislative initiative will be partially resolved when the amendments to the Rules of Procedure of the Verkhovna Rada come into force. This will, in particular, lead to an improvement in the quality of legislative initiatives and a reduction in the number of cases of abuse of the right of legislative initiative.
