The winner of the competition Danil Ustsov told:
- My scientific supervisors always strict in checking my works, because the requirements are more and more every year. However, how nice to see that our initiatives are not only evaluated, but also find a real reflection in the legislation!
The Legislative Assembly of the Kirov region recently in the first reading adopted amendments to the law “On the Commissioner for the Rights of the Child in the Kirov region”, bringing certain provisions into conformity with Federal legislation. One of them - giving new authority to go to court with the protection of the rights and legitimate interests of the child - was propossed by us: after all, protection of childhood is one of the priority directions of the development of the region.
I can confidently say that participation in such competitions is an excellent incentive to improve legislation, as well as an invaluable practical opportunity to be realized in legislative activities.
