Control Legislation as a Driver of Economic Growth

Congress Centre, Justice Quarter. Conference hall E12
Effective Law for an Effective State
Broadcast
A new law on state control was adopted in 2020, and a companion law to it was passed in 2021. More than 200 resolutions of the Russian government, 400 decrees of the federal authorities, 2,500 acts at the regional level, and 25,000 municipal acts have been adopted to implement the laws. One could argue that Russia has created a progressive practice of regulation in areas of risk-based approach, working with business by preventing violations, and working with data in monitoring activities, which is more advanced than the vast majority of countries around the world. How should legislation on control evolve in the near future to implement the next phase of control reform? Which provisions require specific adjustments, and which ones need to be systematically revised?
