The paper deals with an array of key problems of administrative procedure and possible ways of solving them. Firstly, for the theme in question the most important problem is the problem of an administration procedure, and an administrative procedure of the executive power implementation. Thus, the conclusion follows that if there is no answer to the question of how to achieve the goal, in what order, what is the logic and sequence of administrative actions, what is the content of procedural activities, the issue concerning an administrative goal becomes meaningless. Secondly, the problem amounts to the discussion with regard to the essence and structure of administrative procedure, its wide administrative and procedural meaning and a narrow jurisdictional and law-enforcement meaning, and the balance between administrative procedures and jurisdictional proceedings. Thirdly, the paper dwells on the independence of administrative procedure law in the Russian legal system.
