LEGAL REGULATION OF ELECTRONIC GOVERNMENT IN UKRAINE AT THE CURRENT STAGE OF STATE FORMATION

Abstract

The article examines the legal regulation of e government in Ukraine at the current stage of state building. It is determined that e government is a complex form of public administration that combines legal, organizational, technological and social elements. The article emphasizes that the digitalization of public authorities should not be limited only to the creation of electronic services or the transfer of administrative procedures into an online format. Its main purpose is to ensure more accessible, transparent, efficient and human centered interaction between the state and society.

The article analyzes the legal framework of e government, including legal acts regulating electronic document flow, electronic identification, electronic trust services, public electronic services, state registers, personal data protection, access to public information and information security. Particular attention is paid to the problems of fragmented legislation, insufficient integration of information systems, digital inequality, limited technical capacity of certain public authorities and the lack of clear mechanisms of responsibility for improper functioning of electronic services.

It is concluded that the further development of e government should be aimed at systematizing legislation, unifying terminology, introducing common technical standards, strengthening cybersecurity, protecting personal data and creating effective guarantees for users of electronic services.

It was determined that the most promising ways of improvement are the systematization of legislation, unification of terminology, introduction of common technical standards, strengthening cybersecurity, development of digital inclusion, increasing the digital literacy of the population and creation of effective procedures for protecting the rights of users of electronic services. E-government should develop as a human-centric model of public administration, in which digital tools do not replace legal guarantees, but strengthen them.
