Sažetak
In this paper, the authors present the research on the role of concession as a possible instrument for solving the issues of development and preservation of the environment, especially for transition countries such as Croatia. Although it is exceptionally important to stimulate economic development, this does not mean that granting concessions is always justified. With a proper control and strict requirements in terms of sustainability and development of the area, a concession becomes an instrument that may start the development, put in order the illegal use of maritime domain and grant quality in the protection of the sea and the coast. However, in places where concessions on maritime domain may be considered as promoters of development domicile inhabitants frequently oppose to them. The reason to such reaction is primarily the absence of information and insufficient education on advantages and disadvantages of concessions and absence of promotion of positive effects that such form of economic development has for the local community. The authors have studied and analysed the role of public administration and educational institutions in educating inhabitants and managing officials of the maritime domain. Measures for improvement of the concession system and education are proposed, aimed at obtaining the transparency in concession-granting procedures and sustainability. The purpose of this paper is to determine the importance of introducing concessions in the valorisation of maritime domain of transition countries. The aim of this paper is to define the role and the responsibility of grantor in informing the inhabitants, and of educational institutions in educating suitable personnel for managing the maritime domain. A special aim is also to propose adequate measures for improving the efficiency in quick and quality concession-granting procedure.
