Abstract. Expert activity plays a significant role in supporting the resolution of administrative disputes and combating administrative offenses. As a specific form of social activity, the letter is based on both substantive and procedural legal foundations. While the Administrative Procedure Code of the Republic of Armenia provides detailed regulation of relations regarding expert activity, the sources of substantive legislation contain some gaps and regulatory shortcomings.
The results of the author's research show that the substantive legislation does not regulate the relations regarding the adoption of the resolution on the appointment of an expert examination, the requirements for the form and content of the resolution, the procedure for referring research objects to an expert institution or an individual expert, the mandatory cases of appointment of an expert examination, the types of expert examinations, the requirements for the form and content of an expert’s conclusion. In addition, substantive legislation does not regulate the procedure for examining an expert’s conclusion, selecting objects for examination, preparing samples for comparative research, prohibiting the transfer of examinations to other experts, or warning experts of criminal liability for issuing false conclusions.
Based on the identified deficiencies, the article proposes a set of recommendations aimed at improving the regulation of the institute of expertise in administrative (substantive) law.
Keywords: expertise, expert, administrative (substantive) legislation, problems of improvement.
