The methodological basis of the study is a systematic approach to the study of the process of parliamentary control of public finances in the conditions of war and the COVID-19 pandemic. To achieve the goal, the research used scientific methods such as: the dialectical method, the method of comparative analysis, the methods of synthesis and systematization, ion, generalization, and the graphic method. The mechanism of parliamentary control in the field of public finances in Ukraine is analyzed, which allows the legislative branch of power to guarantee that public funds are used responsibly and efficiently.
