Who is this official? Definition and principles of

The streets there were signs saying: official should you smile - you're paying him a salary. 

The first reaction to reading - puzzling, because last week only to those engaged in and that went to the offices of officials, from one to another like a chain, and collected Inquiries. And sometimes it seemed that not even a chain, and a vicious circle. Smiling, or at least friendly people I have not seen.

However, maybe it's my face so they acted or the habit of asking questions why and what after the next board to get another spravochku in N-dimensional office and pay a small amount of money in the form. Well, I've got a bad habit: they ask if something does not know or do not understand.

The second reaction - curiosity. Interestingly, the law says about these important people. Probably, and at their head have instructions and laws that govern the work.

The textbook definition of administrative law has found:

"Public service - professional work on practical tasks and functions of the state, performed by persons who occupy positions in government and administration, and receive a salary from public funds."

That is, indeed, important was not a civil servant, colloquially referred to as the clerk, the salary he receives from the budget to cover the taxpayers.

Read more. Civil servants are not allowed:

- To promote, using his official position, individuals and legal entities in the implementation of their entrepreneurial activities, as well as receiving subsidies, subventions, grants, loans or benefits;

- Engage in entrepreneurial activity, either directly or through intermediaries or front face;

- Enter on their own, through a representative or nominees to the board of companies, financial institutions doing business;

- To deny individuals and legal entities in the information provided is provided by legal acts deliberately to detain her, to provide false or incomplete information and perform other actions prohibited by applicable law.

And it becomes interesting. If an official travels on new cars and wears Tissot - as he does on one salary? I'm a frugal, but the Swiss watch and a new car had not yet accumulated, perhaps we need to learn from knowledgeable people? In which the same principles underpinning the work of public servants? To this question is very specific and clear answer, he just seems a little weird.

Basic principles on which the public service:

- Serving the people;

- Democracy and legality, humanism and social justice;

- The priority of human and civil rights;

- Professionalism, competence, honesty and dedication;

- Responsibility and discipline.

Waiting your turn endless inquiries, and having got to the reception (for the third time!) In the district administration, said a tired bureaucrat who has become almost family to me: "You helped me so! You know, I kind of work often have to deal with the documents and I have printed excerpts from the laws relating to your work, if you want, I'll give you them, but then you have a place on the calendar on the wall blank. " He agreed.

A week later, carrying in his mouth next, in the battles they got help and a few printed leaves with the definitions of public service, how it works, rights, obligations and restrictions on civil servants returned to the administration. The first thing presented own printed sheets with excerpts from the Administrative Law (word gag). Clerk read said that I probably bullied and prevented them from working, they are also serious things are busy! Such nonsense can not be hanged for all to see, and that all asylum obnagleyut. And he sent. Over the next reference, this time in the management of land resources.
