He implements a policy of eliminating corruption practices and risks in the executive service and in the field of expert justice provision, as well as a policy of increasing the level of execution of court decisions.

Haichenko introduced automated, anonymous testing for persons who intend to obtain or confirm their qualification as a judicial expert. He limited the influence of the heads of forensic examination institutes over experts, as disciplinary and qualification powers were transferred from the institutes to the Ministry of Justice. The Deputy Minister also initiated the renewal of the Disciplinary Commissions' composition and procedures, and the expansion of the list of judicial examinations that can be conducted by private experts.

Andriy Haichenko initiated the second stage of the executive service reform to eliminate "gray" schemes. The main elements of the reform are:

• consolidation of a stricter than now principle of territoriality when deciding on the opening of enforcement proceedings;
• granting the right to third parties whose rights and legitimate interests have been violated during enforcement proceedings to file complaints against the actions of a private enforcement agent;
• carrying out reform of the digitalization of the execution of court decisions and achieving the adoption of the relevant law (draft law 14005). Its goal was to automate the removal of arrests upon payment of debt, which will make life easier for law-abiding citizens and eliminate long-standing corruption risks in the process of removing arrests by state and private executors. The purpose of the law is to increase the efficiency and speed of debt collection by digitizing processes.^[3]

To increase the efficiency of the enforcement of court decisions, Gaichenko initiated and implemented significant number of procedures in enforcement proceedings.
