The XX-th century saw complicacy of functions of contemporary public administrative and governmental management. Along with traditional tasks of service, regulation and licensing, that is, implementation of regulating functions, there arise principally new tasks connected with decision-making in various spheres of public life. Public administration on the basis of impartial legally adjusted system and modern technologies is a desirable objective for Russia. To achieve this objective, it is necessary to develop the public administration theory able to substantiate the methodology of building this type of social activity and determine the milestones of the system reform for the government machinery and the institutions and mechanisms that provide it. However, in spite of the practicability of budget expenditure saving, it is necessary to realize that the effective and efficient public service with its specific standards and criteria of efficiency is vital even for the most decentralized public system.
