In fact, we do not have to start from scratch, because we have similar developments and experience in communicating with legal service communities. Before the full-scale invasion, such meetings were initiated initially with the participation of the Minister of Justice, and then the level was raised and an event was held with the participation of the Prime Minister with the heads of legal departments of ministries, other central executive bodies, offices (secretariats) of other state bodies, judges of higher specialized courts, heads of law firms and the media. The bet was that the messages heard from senior officials would inspire many to rigorous law enforcement in difficult special database situations, no worse than the postulates of the laws.
The activities of legal services are an important tool for the system of checks and balances, when the advice of legal experts helps managers and politicians not to make half-hearted decisions in the legal sense, which result in reputational, financial and other risks.
judicial review and cases lost by the state lead to the existing systemic problem in Ukraine of non-enforcement of decisions of national courts, as repeatedly noted in its decisions by the ECHR (the decision of the Grand Chamber of the European Court of Human Rights in the case of Burmych and Others v. Ukraine of 12.10.2017, etc.), and this obviously also affects trust in the governance system both within the country and abroad.
In general, it is desirable to come to a clear understanding that ignoring the comments and proposals of legal services is a violation not only of Ukrainian legislation, but also of future obligations before joining the EU.
