ANALYSIS OF CHANGES IN THE LEGISLATIVE REGULATION OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY OF THE FISHERIES SECTOR

The purpose of the study is to review the transformations of legislation in the field of regulating the environmental safety of the fisheries sector, aimed at tightening the requirements for licensing fishing activities, strengthening control over compliance with standards for the protection of aquatic biological resources, as well as the introduction of new standards for environmental reporting. The hypothesis of the study is that stricter requirements for licensing fishing activities, increased monitoring of compliance with standards for the protection of aquatic biological resources and the introduction of new environmental reporting standards will lead to a reduction in the negative impact on aquatic biological resources and an increase in their protection, on the one hand, and on the other hand, to a decrease in the efficiency of fisheries entities due to rising costs.
