Rulemaking as a stage of law-making activity

There is a rule-making considered as a law-making stage in the paper. A range of authors identifies the rule-making as the law-making by itself. It is wrong. An issue about law-making nature, functions and delimitation between law-making and other neighboring terms remains actual in the legal science. The main difference between law-making and rule-making is that rule-making creates the legal norms while the law-making forms a regime for public relationships functioning in accordance to the targets and objectives posed by state. The public relationships regulation carried out via the norms other than legal ( by traditions, rites etc) is necessary to be highlighted. Therefore, the rule-making process has its own functions and activity limits strictly related to the public regulation. The law-making as public regulator is far beyond the scope of rule-making. The final result of rule-making is the law plan suitable to be adopted as official source of law during usable procedures.
