SYSTEMATIC IMPROVEMENT OF WATER LEGISLATION IS THE KEY TO REVITALISING RIVER BASINS AND WATER BODIES

Svitlana Shara

The article determines that one of the main factors of revitalisation of water bodies and maintenance of high-quality water supply in Ukraine is institutional support of water relations. The author analyses the scientific experience and compares the existing legal systems of water law in the countries of the world and in Ukraine. The main unresolved problems of legal regulation of water relations and water resources management in Ukraine are formulated. Specific institutional steps for the development of legal institutions of water legislation in Ukraine are outlined. The author identifies the need to change the emphasis towards the ecologisation of water law in Ukraine and the development and adoption of a fundamentally new Water Code of Ukraine based on the requirements of international legal and economic systems
