EVALUATION OF PUBLIC GOODS- CONCESSIONS TO ‘CULTURAL GOODS’ AS ‘GOODS OF INTEREST TO THE REPUBLIC OF CROATIA’ WITH EMPHASIS ON THE PARTICULARITIES OF THESE CONCESSIONS

Abstract

Za razliku od hrvatskog prava koje koncesiju povezuje, prije svega, s gospodarskim korištenjem javnih dobara od strane pojedinaca ili pravnih osoba, francusko pravo i praksa koncesiju povezuju s povjeravanjem obavljanja javnih radova ili s povjeravanjem kakve javne službe privatnom poduzetniku, koncesionaru. Francuski pisci govore i o koncesioniranju javne službe – to je postupanje kojim izvjesna javna vlast povjerava koncesionaru upravljanje i gospodarenje određenom javnom službom, pod kontrolom javne vlasti, uz nagradu koja se, u pravilu, sastoji u davanjima korisnika službe. Prema hrvatskom pravu, kulturna dobra su od interesa za Republiku Hrvatsku i uživaju njezinu posebnu zaštitu. Svojstvo kulturnog dobra, na temelju stručnog vrednovanja, utvrđuje Ministarstvo kulture. Vlasništvo nad kulturnim dobrom može se suglasno zakonu ograničiti, i to u pogledu posjeda, uporabe i prometa kulturnim dobrom. Hrvatsko pravo posebno normira koncesije na kulturnim dobrima. U usporedbi s koncesijom na nekim drugim «dobrima od interesa za Republiku Hrvatsku», koncesije na kulturnim dobrima imaju niz posebnosti.In contrast to Croatian law which links concession, above all else to the economic use of public goods on the part of the individual or corporations, the French law and practice link concession to the entrustment of performing public works or to the entrustment of some kind of public service to a private contractor or concessionary. French writers also mention concessionship of the public service. This is behaviour by which the particular public power entrusts a concessionary with administering and managing a certain public service under public control with a reward which in principle is contained within the funds of the users of that service. According to Croatian law, cultural goods which are of interest to the Republic of Croatia also enjoy the state’s special protection. The characteristics of cultural goods, on the basis of expert evaluation, are established by the Ministry for Culture. The ownership of cultural goods can be limited accordingly by law. This can be done in the areas of possession, use and operation of cultural good. In comparison to some other ‘goods of interest to the Republic of Croatia’ concessions to cultural goods have a variety of particularities
