Abstract
The article covers some problems of realization of rights of large families to provision of land plots owned by the state or local government bodies. It is established that in most subjects of the Russian Federation framework laws and by-laws proposed for the discussed subject of the research and closely related to each other are adopted. The article identifies such problems arising in practice when applying the relevant legal norms as: provision of plots to citizens located on the outskirts of a settlement and having no connection with it, land shortage in settlements taking into account territorial zoning and other difficulties related to economic and administrative nature. The article notes the important role of the prosecutor’s office in ensuring the legality of land relations, identifying, preventing offenses and taking response measures to protect the rights of large families to receive land plots. It also considers issues related to the inaction of local government bodies, expressed in the lack of proper registration of citizens who apply for land plots. The important role of infrastructure development in medium and small cities, as well as in rural areas, is stated. It is concluded that the procedure for obtaining land plots by citizens with three or more children should be subject to adjustments concerning both specific issues and the general mechanism for regulating land legal relations.
