One of the key problems in the state of the Russian energy sector is the creation of effective energy­saving technologies for both organizations and ordinary consumers. The forecast of scientific and technological development of the Russian Federation for the period until 2030, approved by the Government of the Russian Federation, mentions low volumes of energy saving in the sphere of final consumption as one of the threats to Russia’s economic development. In 2009, the Federal Law No. 261­FZ “On Energy Saving and Increasing Energy Efficiency” was adopted. The corresponding Resolution of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 961 of September 20, 2014 prescribes the creation of a database on the most effective technologies used in apartment houses, administrative and public buildings. Federal Law No. 184­FZ of December 27, 2002 (as amended on July 29, 2017) “On Technical Regulation” establishes an imperative order, according to which technical and legal regulation in the field of application of energy efficiency requirements, requirements for lighting devices, electric lamps, used for lighting purposes, should be implemented at the level of the federal law approving the relevant normative legal act. However, as of today this federal law has not been adopted. The technical and legal regulation of lighting products is carried out fragmentarily, at the level of national standards. The adoption of a federal law that establishes a technical regulation for lighting products will effectively respond to the challenge outlined in Presidential Decree No. 208 of May 13, 2017 “On the Strategy for Economic Security of the Russian Federation for the Period until 2030” regarding the development of energy­saving technologies and reducing the material consumption.

In this article, we present the first generalization and analysis of decisions made by Russian courts of general jurisdiction from 2009 to 2016 for the application of provisions of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, the Federal Law of November 21, 2011 No. 323-FZ ʼOn the fundamentals of protecting the health of citizens in the Russian Federationʼ, the Federal Law of July 3, 2016 No. 238-FZ ʼOn independent qualification assessmentʼ, the Federal Law of December 29, 2013 No. 273-FZ ʼOn education in the Russian Federationʼ, the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of October 28, 2013 No. 966 ʼOn licensing educational activitiesʼ adopted to fulfill the Decree of the President of the Russian Federation of May 7, 2012 No. 599 ʼAbout measures to implement the state policy in the sphere of education and scienceʼ in the field of advanced training and (or) professional training of employed population aged from 25 to 65 years. As a result, we have made several conclusions. Firstly, if periodical advanced training is a mandatory condition for admission to work (for example, for medical workers), then courts using separate methods of protecting rights of citizens (in particular, health care), should understand the consequences of these decisions. Secondly, the imposition of administrative sanctions in accordance with Part 3 of Article 19.20 of the Code of Administrative Offences due to the non-systematic increase in the professional level of educators recommends improving the algorithm for substantiating the gross violation of license requirements. Thirdly, the legal status of a person who has concluded an agreement on advanced training differs from that of an apprenticeship contract, and the guarantees for this person are not established by Articles 203-205 but rather Article 187 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation. Therefore, courts should not qualify a contract on advanced training as an apprenticeship contract. Fourthly, if advanced training is not designated for employees as additional qualification and an employer does not have the duty to pay for this training, then the resolution of a possible dispute should be based on whether the employer's interest is realized or not. Fifthly, the impossibility of an employee to work should be objective and compulsory, which is assessed by the law enforcer based on the balance of rights and interests of both parties of the corresponding employment contract. Sixthly, the legal regulation of the independent assessment of working qualification requires its improvement and alignment with norms of the labor legislation of the Russian Federation.

This article examines the legal regulation of detection of citizens’ communications on the Internet s that require a response from the government authorities. The relevance is substantiated by the increase in the number of publications on Internet that require a response, as well as by the fact that the corresponding legal relations are not regulated by the Federal Law “On the Procedure for Considering Appeals of the Citizens of the Russian Federation". Since such form of administrative activity obtained a wide circulation in 2020 and needs further research, analysis is conducted on the practice of legal regulation of the indicated questions. The author concludes that the legal acts of all constituent entities of the Russian Federation on this question are similar: they determine the procedure for detection of information that requires a response, its processing, and posting the results of consideration. Analysis is performed on the structure of the subjects engaged in this administrative activity; emphasis is placed on the involvement of nongovernmental organizations in this process. In the conditions of digitalization of administrative activity, many regions utilize the automated Incident Management System to facilitate coordination of all citizens’ communications that require a response. It is noted that the Regional Management Centers have been established for improving the process of detection of citizens’ communications that require a response. Analysis of the system of such relations between the government and the citizens allows continuing research on the problematic issues of working with the Internet resources – falsity of information, anonymous publications, need for immediate response, etc.

The article examines the legal nature of the institute of digital maturity. Being considered the legal grounds for the introduction and use of digital maturity indicators as part of digital transformation processes. The authors analyze the definitions of digital maturity given in the current legislation and scientific literature and outline the indicators of digital maturity. Based on the analysis of legal regulation and the legal nature of the digital maturity concept, the authors define it as the result (level) of the development of a particular subject, object, institution or development direction as part of the digital transformation implementation. This result is characterized by a certain general and special set of indicators (indicators). The article proposes to formalize this definition as part of a federal law or a decree of the Government of the Russian Federation. The analysis of the legal regulation of relations connected with the digital maturity provision indicates a clear lack of methodological support for these processes, the lack of a unified approach to understanding what digital maturity is, and what general and special indicators and criteria for their assessment should be used. The article concludes that, based on the existing legislation, it is often difficult to understand what requirements exist for a certain actor to ensure the digital maturity and how it is to be achieved. The future development of the concept of digital maturity will largely be based on the practical implementation of legally fixed models. In this regard, the authors believe that an instrumental means is carrying out the experiments on the official implementation of these indicators at the level of individual subjects, thus testing it and identifying a promising model for the digital maturity development. In the current situation, there exists a need for the development of the institute by assessing the practical implementation of digital maturity as part of digital transformation processes both at the federal and regional levels in the Russian Federation.

The article describes the issues of strategic planning and legal regulation of activities aimed at energy saving and energy efficiency in the Russian Federation. The authors set the goal to determine the directions for strategic planning of the energy saving policy of the Russian Federation based on a comparative legal analysis in order to achieve the goals of sustainable development of an energy­saving economy. The article considers advanced technologies designed to ensure the most effective implementation of the provisions of legal acts adopted in the last decade in Russia. The methodology of this scientific research is the use of hermeneutics, interpreting legal texts and application of formal logical instruments within the system analysis of current Russian strategic planning acts for long­term (medium­term) period to coordinate the activities of economic entities and public authorities in the appropriate direction. Besides, it includes normative acts that establish the legal, economic and organizational basis for stimulating energy conservation and improving energy efficiency as well as legal documents of other countries that determine their policies in this area. The authors come to the conclusion that it is required to consult various specialists, including ophthalmologists, when creating norms of Russian legislation in the field of energy saving; to account for technical and technological characteristics of LED (light emitting diode) modules, chips, other light sources; to take into consideration the possibility of their use in various fields in order to achieve energy efficiency.

In this paper, the authors highlight the legal basis for the use of biometric personal data, and also pay attention to the main initiative of the state in this area: the creation of a unified biometric system. The study is particularly relevant in connection with the release of the new Federal law No. 168-FZ on June 8, 2020: On the unified Federal information register containing information about the population of the Russian Federation. In particular, an acute problem is the ability to integrate information from the unified biometric system and the Federal register that is being created.

This legal study is an attempt by the author to conduct a full analysis of the Federal Law «On experimental legal regimes in the field of digital innovation in the Russian Federation», which has not yet entered into force, as well as his satellite laws introducing into the legal system experimental legal regimes in the face of regulatory sandboxes, in order to determine their impact and significance on the development of the industry of domestic business law, and, in particular, on the legislation of the Russian Federation on entrepreneurship. As a conclusion, it is noted that the Federal Law "On Experimental Legal Regimes in the Field of Digital Innovations in the Russian Federation", as well as those acts that ensure the implementation of the objectives that it lays down (satellite laws and acts of state authorities, the creation of which is directly delegated by this federal law) are aimed not only at creating favorable conditions for the development of digital innovation in the Russian Federation, but also at developing the industry of domestic entrepreneurs. It is also noted that such development is also ensured by granting legal and regulatory powers, first of all, to the Government of the Russian Federation, as well as to a number of other federal executive bodies and executive bodies of the subjects of the Russian Federation, which in turn tells us about the increasing development of the concept of delegated lawmaking in our country, as well as localization and detailing of legal regulation in the spheres of economic activity depending on its specifics.

Due to the new coronavirus pandemic, high alert regimes were introduced across the Russian Federation in spring 2020. These emergency regimes were established exclusively by the state bodies of the Russian Federation’s constituent units – federal authorities did not introduce their own emergency regimes. This decentralized strategy of fighting the pandemic was also introduced by the USA and Brazil. Their states, without the sanction of the federal government, and in the case of Brazil, ignoring its bans, set emergency restrictions similar to those in Russia. The legal regulation of emergency regimes existed before 2020, when constituent units of the federation (states) actively used their emergency powers. However, the regimes introduced during the fight against the pandemic were slightly different to previous ones. The restrictions on rights and freedoms within these regimes were so severe that not only their proportionality was questioned, but there were also doubts as to whether the regional level of the government had the authority to establish such strict restrictions. In addition, the pandemic exposed old problems and revealed new shortcomings in the legal regulation of emergency regimes: lack of control over the realization of the emergency regime by legislative (representative) authorities, and gaps in legislative regulation – notably in the establishment of possible restrictions and of a mechanism for scrutinizing their proportionality. All this raised questions about the proportionality of the established restrictions. The Constitutional Court of the Russian Federation resolved a very insignificant amount of the problems. While the United States and Brazil faced similar issues, the practice of scrutinizing implemented restrictions in these countries was more common. This article takes domestic and foreign experiences into account, while examining certain aspects of the establishment and the operation of regional emergency regimes.
