Information systems as a tool for regulating public relations: Analysis of Russian and world practice	Introduction. The practice of public administration in the Russian Federation is largely based on the implementation and use of public information systems in all areas. Such information systems become a tool for influencing public relations, firstly, acting as a continuation of legal norms, secondly, replacing the actual norms of law in rare individual cases and, finally, acting as a means of certifying and qualifying legal facts. Theoretical analysis. Legal facts act as the most important links of the legal mechanism – both in legal regulation and in law enforcement. An integral part of the legal regulation mechanism is the system of fixing and certifying legal facts. Empirical analysis. State information systems ensure the maintenance of state registers intended for registration and storage of legal facts, and are also able to collect information in an automated mode and receive new information based on the processing of primary data. In the system of legal regulation, there is a tendency to endow such data with legal force, as a result of which they act as legal facts, and the activities for their qualification are delegated to the information system. The increasing complexity of information systems leads to the fact that the implementation of the rights and obligations of subjects becomes critically dependent on their correct work. Results. The author proposed to establish a number of legislative principles and restrictions, in particular, the principle of verification of conclusions obtained through the use of information systems by a person, in cases where such a conclusion has the force of a legal fact that affects the rights and obligations of a person.

The use of digital technology in the public administration	Introduction. The article is devoted to the use of digital technologies in the field of public administration using the example of state and municipal information systems. Currently, two types of such systems can be distinguished in the Russian Federation: 1) allowing direct enforcement activities; 2) used to capture certain information. Theoretical analysis. Information systems of the first type acquire the properties of an object of complex legal relations, in which suppliers and consumers of information, government bodies, as well as other persons become participants. This entails the fact that in the implementation of public administration, the source of regulation of public relations to a certain extent becomes the program code of these information systems. Accordingly, any failures and errors in the public information system become facts of legal importance. Empirical analysis. The main risks of using information systems of the second type in public administration relate to the illegal access (or use) of information stored in their databases. The consolidation of databases containing different types of information is a serious threat. In this regard, the creation of the Unified Federal Information Register containing information about the population of the Russian Federation, provided for by the Federal Law No. 168-FZ of 08.06.2020, may lead to a large number of socially negative consequences and comes into obvious conflict with the legislation on personal data. Results. State and municipal information systems themselves can improve public administration, including reducing corruption in the country. At the same time, their reduced discretion in management decisions is not always appropriate. Accordingly, their implementation should be preceded by the analysis of the characteristics of a specific area of management, as well as the proposed use of digital technologies.	Izv. Sarat. Univ.
