Silence Law in Primorsky Krai 2019
The law on silence in the Primorsky Territory of 2019 was somewhat modified and adjusted to the specifics of the region, taking into account the main provisions of federal law No. 52.
The preventive measures for actions that qualify as an administrative offense have become a little tougher, and the very qualification of illegal actions has also been modified. However, it is difficult to fully implement the updated law.
By and large, this is justified by the fact that most of the population of the Primorsky Territory has pets that regularly and unintentionally violate the law on silence in the Primorsky Territory.
In addition, these administrative violations have a rather short statute of limitations, which makes it difficult to timely report a violation and pay a fine in a timely manner.
