Public administration in the field of civil protection and security of life in the conditions of local self-government reform and decentralization of power

Abstract

Introduction.The strategy of socio-economic development of Ukraine defines the need to protect the population from emergencies as one of the most important directions of state policy implementation at the present stage, represented by the civil protection system. The main task of preparation to the civil protection of the Ship district of Mykolayiv for 2020 is to develop specific tasks and measures for the implementation of state policy aimed at ensuring the safety and protection of the population and territories, material and cultural values and the environment from emergencies of anthropogenic and natural character in peaceful time and special period. Appointment. The purpose of this article is to systematize the priorities of local governments, enterprises, institutions and organizations, regardless of ownership, aimed at the effective implementation of state policy in the field of protection of the population and territories from anthropogenic and natural emergencies, prevention and prompt response to them. It will allow to draw up and implement scientifically substantiated complex programs of ensuring safe socio-economic development of objects and territories, including the Ship district of Mykolayiv. Results. We are convinced that local authorities, civil protection specialists should thoroughly analyze the effectiveness and reliability level of the territorial subsystem of the unified civil protection system and evaluate the activity of all subjects of civil protection in the area to ensure public safety in emergency situations. The need for this step is dictated by the presence of a number of objective and subjective factors, including: the increase in the number and magnitude of natural emergencies, as well as the damage caused by them; significant deterioration of the systems of emergency control and prevention of emergencies, which threatens emergencies of anthropogenic nature; reducing the quality of supervision of potentially dangerous objects and compliance with fire safety rules; insufficient amount of forces and means necessary to monitor the state of dangerous natural phenomena and insufficient effectiveness of actions at localization of disasters in their initial stage; insufficient level of readiness of civil defense forces due to their low level of logistical support; unsatisfactory resolution of issues related to the construction of new, state-of-the-art protective structures for sheltering the population. Conclusions. Development and application of these and other types of public administration mechanisms in the field of CS combined with the opportunities arising from the requirements of the regulatory legal system, the state of the economy, create the basis for the effective functioning of the system of protection of the population and territories from the National Emergency, allow to draw up and implement scientifically sound integrated programs ensuring safe socio-economic development of facilities and territories, including the Ship district of Mykolayiv.
