The provisions of this code determine the legal status of participants in administrative relations, the powers of administrative public authorities and judicial bodies competent to consider administrative disputes, the rights and obligations of participants in administrative proceedings and administrative court proceedings.
Certain aspects related to administrative activities in specific areas of activity may be regulated by special legislative norms that deviate from the provisions of this code only if such regulation is extremely necessary and does not contradict the principles of this code.
