Abstract

The directions for improving the organizational and legal instruments to ensure public administration in the field of biosafety of Ukraine are considered. It is proposed to create a permanent National Monitoring Centre for Biological Threats taking into consideration that there is no single authorized body in the field of biosafety in Ukraine, and the functions of monitoring epidemic and epidemiological information are assigned to various institutions. The activities of the monitoring centre are designed to support organizationally and functionally the existing system for responding to emergencies of a medical and biological nature and to increase its efficiency by significantly reducing the response time to emergency situations. It is proven that the integration of the existing sources of information on current biological risks in a dynamic mode within a single centre will significantly speed up the response time to the emergence of biological threats. It provides a transition from retrospective analysis to monitoring risks and their prevention. Taking into account that the effectiveness of the mechanism of public administration in the field of biosafety depends on the efficiency of public authorities, the directions for improving the organizational and legal support of public administration in the field of biosafety of Ukraine is presented. It is substantiated that it is expedient to improve the information support of public administration in the field of biological safety, in particular, through the formation of relevant databases covering the field of professional training, human resources, and research activities in the field of biological safety. The need to form the centralized registers is confirmed by foreign experience. The formation of information databases allows creating not only conditions for the controllability of the biological safety system within Ukraine, but also contributes to the formation of an effective mechanism of international cooperation (international mediation in this area).
