The article analyzes the scientific approaches to the definition of the competence of public authorities, in particular, the
bodies of pre-trial investigation of the National Police.
Today, the notion of competence in the field of law applies only to public authorities - representatives of public power, which
is expressed in the right to professional activities within certain limits. It has been established that competence is a category
of law to determine the extent of the rights and powers of a state body. By securing the appropriate body, the prohibition is
allowed to go beyond its borders and interfere with other bodies in a certain area.
Competence considered as a complex element of administrative law: 1) certain powers that are assigned to the subject at
the legislative level; 2) professional knowledge, information that the subject possesses at a high level; 3) motives, which are
advanced to a future specialist in a certain field of knowledge. The competence of the pre-trial investigation bodies is
determined by the Criminal Procedural Code of Ukraine and the Order «On the organization of the activities of the bodies of
pre-trial investigation of the National Police».
It has been established that a systematic approach should be used to effectively allocate authority competences and ensure
the effective functioning of pre-trial investigation bodies. The provision of competences will be successful provided when the
authorities and their institutions are stable; correct regulation of competences (and authorities, in particular), namely
avoiding duplication between different authorities/departments; appropriate high and qualified competence of senior
executives and staff of the National Police, as well as material support and incentives. At the same time, the term
«competence» itself is not legally defined clearly, therefore, the definition of the content of this concept and to date remains
the subject of discussion in legal science and needs further analysis.
