Popis: The relevance of the subject under study is based on the exponential growth of corruption threats to the effective activities of state and local government bodies, which are the centre of consolidation of the democratic foundations of the social system. The purpose of this study was to position the main existing gaps in the modern administrative and legal dimension of streamlining the mechanisms for involving civil society institutions in preventing corruption torts in Ukraine and methods of their elimination, considering the available practices. To implement the tasks of scientific intelligence, the following methods were used: system analysis, comparative implementation, forecasting, statistical. It was found that changes in Ukraine, both in the economy and in politics, actively affect the production of new relationships, the development of modern relations between public administration bodies and public institutions (associations). It was noted that the constant relationship between state authorities and society is evidence and a guarantee of the socio-legal constancy and evolution of any state since the existing problematic issues of escalation in Ukraine cannot be solved without the full aid of society. At the same time, this also applies to civil society institutions. An integrative study of the function of civil society institutions to prevent corruption torts in public authorities was conducted. Practical proposals were given in terms of solving an entire range of theoretical and practical tasks that will prevent the commission of corruption offences by civil servants. To improve the norms of Chapter 13-A “Administrative offences related to corruption” of the Code of Ukraine of Administrative Offences, proposals were made to amend the following articles: Art. 1724 of the Code of Administrative Offences “Violation of restrictions on co-operation and combination with other types of activities”, Art. 1726 “Violation of requirements of financial control”, Art. 1728 “Illegal use of information that became known to a person in connection with the performance of official or other legally defined powers”. To ensure the effectiveness of anti-corruption institutions, it was proposed to develop and adopt the “Regulation on public anti-corruption associations (institutions) and their powers”. This paper can be useful for a wide range of readers: scientists, law enforcement officials, public anti-corruption institutions, and anyone interested in preventing corruption offences.
