The article discusses the issue of organizational and legal support of the control function of the local self-government body in the conditions of sustainable development in Ukraine. The functions of local self-government in Ukraine were outlined. The essence of the control function of local self-government bodies has been studied. The authors performed an analysis of the legislation defining the control powers of local self-government bodies and carried out its relationship with the goals of sustainable development. The purpose of this article is to define and characterize the control function of the local self-government body and its relationship with the goals of sustainable development. Various methods were used in the article, namely: historical method, method of documentary analysis, formal-legal, system-structural. Thus, with the help of the system-structural method, information on the relationship between the legally defined functions of local self-government bodies and the goals of sustainable development was systematized, which contributed to increasing the complexity, systematicity and completeness of the research. Thanks to this, it was possible to conclude that after the reform of the local self-government institute, which consisted in decentralization, the local self-government bodies gained additional control powers, which, as a result, strengthened sustainable development in the localities.

El propósito del artículo es estudiar la experiencia de los principales países europeos en el control y la supervisión del espíritu empresarial y determinar las oportunidades para su aplicación en Ucrania. Los autores del artículo han fundamentado la conveniencia de estudiar la experiencia de los países desarrollados del mundo, ya que puede permitir delinear los vectores del desarrollo de la legislación ucraniana, para adaptarla a los requerimientos del mundo y de la Comunidad Europea. Hasta la fecha, Europa ha desarrollado enfoques bastante diferentes y al mismo tiempo interesantes para llevar a cabo el control sobre el espíritu empresarial. Su diferenciación se debe a: en primer lugar, las particularidades de la situación económica y política de un país; en segundo lugar, la política del Estado en las esferas económica, financiera y política. Se ha señalado que el legislador ucraniano no debe introducir imprudentemente toda la experiencia positiva, porque también se deben tener en cuenta las peculiaridades de la economía, la política y la mentalidad. Es necesario fortalecer la supervisión y el control, sin embargo su implementación debe basarse en los principios de conveniencia, es decir, debe llevarse a cabo solo si existen razones que están definidas por las normas de la legislación vigente. El fortalecimiento del control y la supervisión debe ir acompañado de una mejora simultánea de los incentivos para estimular el espíritu empresarial a través de instrumentos políticos, económicos, fiscales y presupuestarios; la cuestión del control interno requiere una regulación legislativa detallada. El legislador debe revisar los principios organizativos para llevar a cabo el control y la supervisión del espíritu empresarial y diferenciar claramente las competencias de las entidades de control para evitar la duplicación de sus poderes.
