Legal regulation of the status of public organizations

The concept of "public organization" has not undergone significant changes since Soviet times. They are recognized as voluntary non-governmental associations of individuals based on common interests to achieve common goals.

According to the definition of Article 8 of the 82-FZ “On Public Associations”, a public organization is a public association based on mandatory fixed membership.

According to Article 123.4 of the Civil Code, the purposes of its establishment may be:

satisfaction of non-material (including spiritual) needs;
representing and protecting the interests of members before third parties;
contributing to the development of education, medicine, nature conservation, etc.

The identification of significant characteristics of public organizations is facilitated by determining their place in the system of legal entities.

Within the framework of Chapter 4 of the Civil Code, public organizations are classified as non-profit.

But there is a caveat: such an organization has the right to carry out income-generating activities while simultaneously observing the following conditions:

the possibility of implementing entrepreneurial activity is provided for by the charter (if the charter does not contain provisions of this kind, amendments are necessary);
it does not contradict the non-commercial statutory goals of the organization, but serves to achieve them;
public organization has sufficient assets market value not less than the minimum size authorized capital OOO.

The organizational form of a public organization is the base for non-profit structures of other types.

Thus, Article 50 of the Civil Code contains a non-exclusive list of types of non-profit public organizations. It:

political parties;
trade unions established in the form of legal entities
bodies of public initiative;
territorial public self-governments.

Public organizations have the right to form unions. Relatively large companies In Russia, there is a practice of registering as independent legal entities not only the head (parent) organization, but also its territorial bodies.

Public organizations can be transformed into autonomous non-profit organizations or funds. This requires amendments to the charter (Article 123.4 of the Civil Code)

Requirements for the founders of a public organization, their status and number

The key features of public organizations are: fixed membership; mandatory issuance of membership cards; payment of membership fees as a key source of formation of the financial and material base of activities. It is on the basis of compulsory membership that a public organization differs from non-profit structures of other organizational forms, for example, social movements.

The founders of public organizations automatically acquire the status of their members, as well as the corresponding set of rights and obligations (paragraph 9 of article 19 of 82-FZ). Persons interested in joining the ranks of the members of the organization submit a written application.

document in without fail must express:

interest in the activities of the organization;
agreement with its goals and provisions of the charter;
willingness to accept responsibility in case of non-compliance with the rules of the organization.

Rights of members of public organizations:

know about its activities;
participate in management, initiate amendments to the charter;
elect, be elected to the governing, auditing, supervisory bodies;
challenge the legitimacy of the actions of the administration;
demand compensation for losses caused by illegal actions of the organization.

List of obligations:

pay contributions (members of the organization lose the right to own property and funds transferred to a public organization for the implementation of statutory activities);
participate in the formation of the organization's assets in the manner specified by the charter;
refrain from actions that could harm the organization, complicate the achievement of its goals;
participate in decision-making, without which the organization cannot continue its activities;
be liable for illegal actions in the form of exclusion from the members of the organization.

The number of founders of a public organization is imperatively determined by Article 123 of the Civil Code at the level of three persons. Although the organizations in question are nominally associations of citizens, Articles 6 and 18 of 82-FZ allow membership in organizations of legal entities that are public associations. All members of a public organization, whether individuals or legal entities, are equal in rights and duties.

List of persons who cannot be founders, members, participants of a public association

There is an imperative ban on membership in a public organization of public entities and their bodies: the state, state structures, regional authorities, territorial communities represented by the municipality (Article 19 82-FZ).

For individuals, there are following rules:

Age limit. By general rule is 18 years old. Given the diversified nature potential species activities of public associations, this is generally correct. However, there are some doubts. So, in the order of emancipation, a citizen can receive full legal capacity before reaching the age of 18 (Article 27 of the Civil Code). Why a full-fledged member of society bearing the full burden of responsibility for his life cannot be a member/participant of a public association remains a mystery. A member/participant of a youth organization must be at least 14 years old, a child organization must be at least 8 years old. It is worth noting that the allowance is made specifically for members / participants, but not for the founders, which is quite logical. State registration of youth and children's public associations in the Unified State Register of Legal Entities is carried out on the condition that the governing bodies are fully formed from capable citizens (Article 21 82-FZ).
The admissibility of lowering the age limit should be due to the specific status of the organization (children's or youth), reflected in the name and charter of the organization. At the legislative level, the specifics of such a status are not defined; in the Russian Federation, 98-FZ “On state support of youth and children's public associations” is in force, but not about these associations as such.
Questions of citizenship. Article 19 82-FZ defined the following rules: unless otherwise stipulated by special legal acts, citizens of the Russian Federation and foreigners with legal permanent residence in the Russian Federation can be founders and members / participants of public associations. Foreigners residing outside of Russia may be honorary members of a public association without conferring on them the usual rights and without imposing on them corresponding obligations. According to Article 23 of the 95-FZ “On political parties”, only citizens can be their members.
Legal capacity. Article 19 of 82-FZ does not operate with such a concept as legal capacity. And if this is perhaps justified in relation to members/participants, then the founders and members of the governing and supervisory bodies must obviously have full civil capacity. Apparently, such an omission is a consequence of the "obsolescence" of the provisions of the law. 82-FZ was adopted in 1995, and part I of the Civil Code - only in 2001. Meanwhile, issues of legal capacity can be regulated by special legislation. So, according to Article 23 of the 95-FZ, only a capable natural person can be a member of a political party.

The ban on the establishment, membership / participation in the activities of public associations applies to:

person non grata - foreigners whose stay in the Russian Federation is undesirable (the Foreign Ministry publishes lists of names);
persons mentioned in the list formed in accordance with 115-FZ "On counteracting the legalization (laundering) of funds obtained by criminal means and the financing of terrorism";
public associations, the functioning of which was suspended under the rules of 114-FZ "On countering extremist activity";
persons in whose actions signs of extremist activity are revealed (established by a court verdict);
persons serving a sentence of imprisonment for committing a crime.

Charter of a public organization, requirements for its content

The charter of a public organization must contain information about:

its name;
legal address;
the territory to which the organization's activities apply (the latter can be all-Russian, regional, local);
purposes and subject of activity;
membership, participation;
the procedure and grounds for gaining and losing membership;
composition, competence, terms of office of the governing and auditing bodies;
decision-making procedure;
a list of issues, decisions on which are taken unanimously or by a qualified majority;
about the rights and obligations of members (their responsibility is described separately);
the rights of a public organization and its territorial bodies for asset management;
the procedure for amending the articles of association;
the procedure for the distribution of property remaining after the liquidation of the organization.

It is impossible to overestimate the importance of the charter of a public organization. This is a key document for state registration and functioning of a legal entity.

The legal personality of organizations in Russia is special. In other words, public organizations have the right to take only those actions, the possibility of which is stipulated by their constituent documents.

If this is relevant, model charter public organization must initially make additional information about:

potentially possible types of activities, including those related to making a profit;
the right to accept/make donations;
the possibilities and procedure for disposing of property;
the right of the organization to represent its members in court and competent authorities;
symbolism, if you plan to use it.

COMMENTS: ------------ When creating regional (local) branches of a public organization, the following changes and additions are made to the Charter: In clause 1.1. it is necessary to indicate who is the founder. For example: The Moscow Society "Children of the Earth" is the city branch of the All-Russian Society "Children of the Earth". The Moscow Society operates on the territory of Moscow. The founder of the Moscow Society "Children of the Earth" is the All-Russian Society "Children of the Earth" (registration number No.___ dated "__"_________ 20__. Location of the governing body: ____________________. Clause 3.1. should be replaced by the following wording: The structure of the society is formed by scientific, creative, production and other organizations that are part of it.The company has the right to create its branches with the right of a legal entity in any administrative district Moscow. Relations with these departments and organizations that are part of it are built on a contractual basis. Clause 3.2. add the following words: The governing bodies (board, president) are elected from among the members of the local society with subsequent approval of the candidacies by the founder. Clause 5.1. add the words: The founding contribution of the All-Russian Society "Children of the Earth". Include clause 5.2. as follows: The Moscow Society "Children of the Earth" has the property transferred to it on the basis of the right of full economic management (the right of operational management). The owner of the property assigned to the Moscow Society is the All-Russian Society "Children of the Earth". Clause 7.4. should be changed to: The property and funds of the Moscow Society, after settlements with the state, other legal entities and individuals, cannot be distributed among the members and are subject to transfer to the founder - the All-Russian Society "Children of the Earth" ... (hereinafter in the text).

These are voluntary associations of citizens created in the manner prescribed by law on the basis of their common interests to meet spiritual or other non-material needs, to represent and protect common interests and achieve other goals that do not contradict the law.

The main difference from other NGOs is the association based on membership. Even the founders become members and do not have any preferences. The participant is obliged to pay membership and other property fees, and also has the right to terminate participation at any time at his own discretion. Membership is inalienable, and the exercise of rights cannot be transferred to another person.

Participants are not liable for the obligations of the organization in which they participate as members, and that organization is not liable for the obligations of its members.

They differ according to their area of activity. There are all-Russian, inter-regional, regional and local. All-Russian ones operate in the territories of more than half of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation and have their own units there. Regional ones operate on the territory of only one subject of the Russian Federation, while local ones operate within the territory of a local self-government body (for example, a settlement).

The name of the organization should contain an indication of the territorial scope of its activities.

How to draw up and approve the charter

It is issued on A4 paper in two copies. All pages of the document must be numbered, stapled, on the last sheet, fix the total number of sheets and stamp.

The sample will be the same, regardless of the territorial feature. Below we present a variant for an all-Russian structure, but it can be used to develop, for example, a model charter for an interregional public organization.

Approved at the general meeting of participants. It must be developed and approved before the registration of an NPO, since the charter is included in the package of documents required for this, and the application for registration indicates information on its adoption: the date and place that adopted the body, for example, a general meeting.

Content Requirements

When developing a document, for example, a sample charter of a regional public organization in 2020 or any other, the following information must be included:

about the name
about the location of the NPO,
about the subject and goals of its activities,
about the order of entry and exit;
on the composition and competence of its bodies and the procedure for making decisions by them, including on issues, decisions on which are taken unanimously or by a qualified majority of votes;
on the property rights and obligations of the participant (member);
on the procedure for the distribution of property remaining after liquidation.
