The proposed form of the aviation science management is aimed at implementing new management and funding principles. This means strengthening the coordinating and stimulating role of the state; improving the efficiency of long-term planning; focusing efforts on breakthrough and critical technology; developing the practical orientation of research; and ensuring the active sharing of technology with other economic sectors.
The second draft law approved by the Commission has been developed to establish a regulatory framework supporting the operation of the Zhukovsky Institute National Research Centre in the form of a federal state budget institution in accordance with the draft federal law On the Zhukovsky Institute National Research Centre.
This draft federal law proposes to introduce amendments to the federal law On State and Municipal Unitary Enterprises, which will make it possible for the centre to exercise the powers of the owner of the property of unitary enterprises in the list approved by the Government under the procedure and in the measure established by the Government.
In addition, it is proposed to introduce amendments to the federal law On Autonomous Institutions that make it possible for the Zhukovsky Institute National Research Centre to develop proposals on creating an autonomous institution based on federal property whose functions and founder authorities will be exercised by the centre on behalf of the Russian Federation.
The draft federal law also provides for amendments to the federal law On Autonomous Institutions, granting the Zhukovsky Institute National Research Centre the right to take the decision on creating an autonomous institution by changing the type of the state institution whose functions and authorities are exercised by the centre on behalf of the Russian Federation.
