| Summary: | The authors have presented specific features of providing funeral services in Ukraine. The emphasis has been placed on the fact that the quality of administrative services is a priority dominant in the development of society’s legal and social life. The authors have emphasized the importance of creating equal opportunities for the access to all services for all citizens, which should contribute to their quality. Particular attention in the process of legislative transformation taking place in various areas of legal regulation should be paid to one of the relevant areas – the provision of funeral services, which, although not included in the official list of administrative services, but have an administrative nature given the parties of their provision. At the same time, the issue of monopoly and corruption in the field of funeral services remains poorly studied. Particular attention has been paid to determining the definitive features of the administrative and legal nature of these services. Taking into account the current realities of reforms in all spheres of public life and the impact on the effectiveness of their implementation, the prevalence of acute respiratory disease Covid-19, the authors have analyzed the aspects of legislative and procedural irregularities in the sphere of providing funeral services. The monopolized and corrupt nature of the funeral services in Ukraine is among the main shortcomings of such a mechanism. It has been emphasized that among the problems that arise in this area are: 1) the lack of transparent information systems, which significantly complicates the mechanism of choosing a burial place, providing the necessary documents and creates corruption; 2) violation of the requirements of landscaping, the proximity of burial sites to human habitation, the lack of legally regulated options for bioburials, which causes the deterioration of the environmental situation. |
