The article examines the evolutionary development of the institutions of the welfare state in modern Russia. How and in what ways should the state rely on the structures of civil society in the optimal implementation of pension reform. An attempt is made to compare the pension reform in Russia with implemented, successful examples of the organization of social assistance abroad.

The article discusses some issues that have arisen in practice regarding the simultaneous functioning of two mechanisms for bringing to public liability for violation of the procedure and deadlines for submitting information (documents) in the compulsory insurance system, one of which is provided for by Federal Law No. 27-FZ of April 1, 1996 “On Individual (Personalized) Accounting in Compulsory Pension Insurance systems and compulsory social insurance”, the other is Article 15.33.2 of the Code of Administrative Offences of the Russian Federation. The law enforcement practice of the implementation of both mechanisms is investigated, as well as some theoretical and practical issues of consistency and proportionality of legislative regulation establishing both mechanisms.
