In Russia, digitalization of administrative workflow will be carried out
On October 21, 2024, it became known that the Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation had prepared a plan for the digitalization of administrative workflow. The project involves the introduction of a single procedure for electronic notification (including decisions made), the launch of electronic document management and the possibility of participating in the consideration of cases remotely in the format of teleconferences.
According to the Kommersant newspaper, the developed plan provides for amendments to the Administrative Code. The changes were agreed by the Supreme Court, the Main Legal Directorate of the President, the Bank of Russia, the Prosecutor General's Office, the Ministry of Economy, the Ministry of Digital Development of Internal Affairs, the Institute of Comparative Law and other structures. Digitalization is expected to cover all "non-judicial" fines and prescriptions - from traffic violations to decisions made by government agencies of business.
Electronic documents such as subpoenas, minutes, applications, petitions and others would be equivalent to paper "if technically feasible." Possible restrictions in the implementation of the project are explained by the lack of funds in the budget for the widespread digitalization of the sphere under consideration. For the exchange of information, personal accounts of legal entities and individual entrepreneurs, various means of communication (for example, e-mail), electronic document management systems of a participant in a case and "an information system determined by the Supreme Court or the Judicial Department under the Supreme Court" in all administrative cases can be used.
It is noted that the digitalization of administrative workflow will provide a number of advantages. In particular, business representatives and citizens will be able to defend their interests in the proceedings, being in other cities and even countries. In addition, interaction between entrepreneurs and regulatory bodies will be simplified. This will "expand the representativeness of administrative cases and the speed of decision-making."[1]

The Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation is introducing an AI system for analyzing regulatory acts
In mid-April 2021, it became known about the created system, Ministry of Justice of Russia AI capable of analyzing the regulations entering the department. The head of the Ministry of Justice spoke about this at an expanded board. Konstantin Chuichenko
 | In 2020, the Ministry of Justice of Russia developed a system that allows analyzing regulatory legal acts submitted to the Ministry of Justice for registration or legal examination using artificial intelligence technology, he said (quoted by TASS Information Agency of Russia). |  |
According to Chuichenko, by mid-April 2021, the AI system is being tested and is preparing to be put into operation. He did not name the timing of the start of the new technology.
As Kommersant notes, the idea of attracting artificial intelligence to assess regulations not only fits into the general trend towards the digitalization of public administration, but should also simplify the work of weeding out low-quality regulations sent by other departments. According to the rector of St. Petersburg State University Nikolai Kropachev, the quality of the preparation of acts remains one of the main management problems - in 2020, over 2.2 thousand documents were returned without registration for revision (mainly due to violation of the rules of legal technology, including requirements for the language of regulatory acts).
As part of the digitalization of the Ministry of Justice, by mid-April 2021, issues are being worked out on the creation of a unified state legal system in Russia on the basis of information systems supported by the Vedomosti and the portal "Regulatory Legal Acts of the Russian Federation." It will become the main source of verified information about all regulatory legal acts of the Russian Federation in their current state. The roadmap for this project should appear before the end of 2021.[2]
