The draft law establishes the obligation to maintain a list of control objects taken into account as part of the formation of an annual plan of control (supervisory) measures through a single register. Information on all issued orders will be entered into the control registers. The inspector will not be able to check without entering data into the information system of control and supervision, which is integrated with the resources of the Prosecutor General's Office.

In addition, it provides for the right of the controlled person to refuse the inspector access to the objects of control and to take other measures to implement the control measure if the documents drawn up by the supervisory authority do not have or incorrectly have a two-dimensional bar code provided for by the rules for the formation and maintenance of a unified register of control measures.^[1]

Roskomnadzor, Ministry of Industry and Trade, Ministry of Construction and FSSP connected to the Inspector service

In August 2024, it became known that as part of an experiment to introduce a system of remote control over the activities of companies, seven federal departments joined the Inspector mobile application at once, including Roskomnadzor, the Ministry of Industry and Trade, the Ministry of Construction and the FSSP. This step is aimed at increasing the efficiency of state control and reducing time and labor costs on the part of both inspectors and companies. Now ten federal structures will be able to conduct inspections without the need to go to the facilities, which significantly speeds up the process and reduces the burden on the business.

According to Kommersant, the pilot project using the Inspector application covered only the Ministry of Emergencies, Roszdravnadzor and Rostekhnadzor. For the period from April to July 2024, these departments conducted 355 remote checks, including inspections, surveys, requests for documents and preventive visits. The experiment showed that the use of video communication allows you to conduct up to three checks a day, which is several times faster than the traditional departure of inspectors to the places. The introduction of such technologies, as noted by Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Grigorenko, makes it possible to transfer a significant part of control measures to a remote format without loss of quality and with improved transparency of procedures.

The Inspector application implements the functions of tracking geoposition, detecting attempts to replace geolocation, as well as maintaining photo, video and audio recordings. These materials are stored on secure servers and are available for five years for both regulatory authorities and companies, which simplifies the process of appealing the results of inspections. By introducing a digital tool, the process of interaction between business and inspectors becomes more comfortable and transparent, while reducing the risks of corruption.^[2]
