Résumé

The Act prescribes the specifications which arise from the special nature of the insular conditions of the permanently inhabited small island and which are not provided for in other Acts. The objectives of the state and local governments in the administration of the permanently inhabited small islands include (1) restoration, preservation and supporting the development potential of permanent inhabitation; (2) supporting the local government capacity and increasing the participatory democracy; (3) creation of workplaces and subsistence opportunities for permanent inhabitants and support of enterprise; (4) ensuring the availability of vital public services (police authorities and rescue service agencies, drinking water, postal services and electronic communications, electricity supply, transport connection, pre-school, basic and secondary education, and social assistance); (5) preservation of the specific features of the islands lifestyle and continuity of folk culture; (6) preservation and protection of the appearance of the landscape and natural environment characteristic of the small islands; and (7) linking the permanent inhabitants' activities and interests with the state necessity of protection of the territorial sea and state border and the environmental conservation.
