The article provides a comprehensive study of the legal framework of public control in the sphere of public administration in Ukraine. The constitutional principles, special legislation (the Law of Ukraine “On Access to Public Information”, the Law of Ukraine “On Public Control” dated 13.05.2015 No. 393-VIII, etc.), subordinate normative acts, and contemporary scientific literature of 2015–2025 have been analyzed. Particular attention is paid to the problems of practical implementation of public control mechanisms in the context of decentralization of power and martial law. The main gaps in legal regulation have been identified, including the lack of clear sanctions for ignoring the results of public monitoring, insufficient digitalization of procedures, and the low institutional capacity of public councils. Based on the analysis, proposals for improving legislation and practice are formulated.
