This paper analyses Ordinance on handling dangerous goods, the conditions and method of transport in maritime traffic, loading and unloading of dangerous goods, bulk and other cargo in ports and the method of preventing the spreading of oil spills in ports especially in the segment of the definition of dangerous goods, the supporting documents accompanying the handling of dangerous goods as well as supervision of the application of protective and safety measures. The author also discusses the terminological inconsistencies of important conceptual definitions while highlighting possible solutions. The paper also researches the role of the professional service, i.e., the qualified person who supervises handling dangerous goods in ports and who as such, is considered as the responsible person. The possible duality of the legal regulation of handling dangerous goods with regard to the Act on Transport of Dangerous Goods is also being researched. The last part highlights the contribution of the European Maritime Safety Agency (EMSA) and the achievements of the Republic of Croatia in establishing a system for the exchange of data on dangerous goods. In conclusion, the author gives an assessment of the compliance of the Croatian legal norm on the handling dangerous goods with international and EU solutions and makes appropriate proposals.

This article examines the issues of differentiation of legislative and subordinate regulation of public relations. It is noted that in the process of law-making activities, including the legislative process, practical questions often arise about the competence of various state bodies to establish various legal norms and rules. These issues are related to the need to establish a clear legal meaning of the constitutional norms devoted to the definition of the subject of regulation of laws. In particular, there is a need to clarify the provisions of paragraph 3 of Article 61 of the Constitution of the Republic of Kazakhstan in terms of the concepts "the most important public relations", "all other relations", "subsidiary legislation", as well as to establish the relationship between these concepts. Interpretation is also required by the provisions of p. 4 of Article 61 of the Constitution in terms of clarifying the question of whether the conclusion follows from mentioned provisions that all possible social relations in the Republic of Kazakhstan are subject to legal regulation, including those that are subject to other social and technical regulators (morality, national, business and professional traditions and customs, religion, standards, technical regulations, etc.). Answering the questions raised, the author emphasizes that the law and bylaws, as a rule, constitute a single system of legislation, performing the functions of primary and secondary acts. However, the secondary nature of subsidiary legislation does not mean that they regulate "unimportant" public relations. The law is essentially aimed at regulating all important social relations.

The article is devoted to the analysis of the legal protection of subsoil. Based on the analysis of legislation, the author distinguishes the theoretical features of the concepts of "subsoil" and "legal protection of subsoil," an attempt was made to formulate an author's definition of these concepts. The author concludes that it is necessary to recognize the subsoil as an object of environmental and legal protection, taking into account their properties not only as a repository of minerals, energy and other resources, but also as a complex and basic component of the natural environment. The author believes that from the point of view of the interests of subsoil protection, it is advisable to distinguish between the requirements for ensuring the rational use of subsoil and the requirements aimed directly at the protection of subsoil, with the separation of the latter into a separate article of the Subsoil Code of the Republic of Belarus "Subsoil Protection," which will contribute to the development of the environmental focus of legal regulation in this area.

The article is devoted to the study of the essence of public order as the object of legal protection against hooliganism. Public order as a complex differentiated category is formed from numerous volitional relationships between people in society being manifested in their behavior and actions as a result of their conscious activity. The state adopting certain laws exerts considerable influence on interpersonal relations monitoring their compliance and execution. Public order as the object of criminal legal protection from hooliganism is a complex socio-legal category based on the relations between members of society and their obedience to moral standards indicating the relevance of the topic of the article. The article examines the definition of the concept of «public order» expressed by the Court of Cassation of the Republic of Armenia, as well as views put forward in the legal literature of the Republic of Armenia and the Russian Federation. The concept of «public order» is considered in both broad and narrow meanings. In addition, the problems of possible social regulators that determine the criteria for acceptable behavior of an individual within the framework of public order are discussed. In the field of constitutional and legal regulation, the currentle gislation of the Republic of Armenia on public order, in particular the legal acts defining the criteria for permissible behavior of an individual within the framework of public order, has been investigated. As a result of the study, proposals to bring the concept of «public order» used in Article 258 of the Criminal Code of the Republic of Armenia into line with the principle of legal certainty were made.
