Creation of the new court jurisdiction in Ukraine represented by administrative procedure gave rise to the relevant areas of scientific research, many of which are concerned with its legal identification and correlation with long-established legal categories. The analysis shows that differences in jurists’ opinions are an indication of the pressing scientific issue, addressing which will stimulate ongoing comprehension of the essential characteristics of the judicial appeal against acts and omissions by public authorities.

Accordingly, the aim of this research is to carry out the legal identification of administrative procedure by showing its relation to the subject of administrative law and administrative proceeding.

This has been done by examining the opinions of administrative law scholars on interpretation and correlation of such concepts as administrative procedure, subject of administrative law, administrative proceeding as well as their views on the norms of the Code of Administrative Procedure of Ukraine and provisions of other norms and regulations.

It has been emphasized that renovation of the Ukrainian administrative law and formation of its modern paradigm are inextricably linked with the number of factors which include theoretical and practical findings in the sphere of administrative procedure, efficiency of the scientific support for the reforms of the administrative and legal institutions, establishing the patterns of their reformation, legal review of the actions being taken, as well as providing legal grounding for political and philosophical developments, along with generating legislative and organizational initiatives.

This research also argues that administrative procedure is a fundamental component of the subject matter of administrative law and an integral part of the administrative proceeding.

As a result of this, the authors conclude that administrative procedure, being of administrative and legal nature, constitutes the part of the subject matter of administrative law and administrative proceeding. It is therefore proposed that administrative proceeding be defined as an umbrella term for the regulatory activities of public administration in relation to exercising their authority.
