In my master diploma thesis I will concentrate on exploring Port Authority, comparing different models of Ports, the Legal basis for the introduction of Port Authority and potential problems or obstacles in the introduction thereof. This will show the importance and necessity of introducing Port Authority not only at Local level but also at National level.
In general, Port Authority is a special State or Quasi-state entity. As a rule, it is a Public Port Authority, that is why I’ll use for it only the expression Port Authority. Exceptionally, there are also cases where the Port Authority arises as a Private Institution. Port Authority is an independent person, who is usually established by the legislature for the specific area, in order to manage specific areas of Public interest, Port and associated infrastructure. Different models of Port Authority exist worldwide. In my master diploma thesis I will present various models of the Port Authority, while also proposing the most effective and transparent model form of it for a specific Area such as Port of Koper.
In the master diploma thesis, I will sometimes use the original English worlds, because they are a part of maritime terminology, established at international level and to the translation they may lose their meaning.
