Responsibilities of the central and local governments

In the process of drone management, the central and local governments have their own responsibilities to ensure the safety of tourists and the public interest. It is important to understand that according to the Civil Aviation Law, the central government is responsible for the overall regulation of drones, while the local government is responsible for the specific implementation of the management of specific areas. Therefore, when engaging in drone flying activities, you need to follow the relevant regulations and apply for permission from the competent authorities.

Division of Management Responsibilities

There is a clear division of responsibility for drone management, so you should know that the central government is primarily responsible for legal regulations and the declaration of no-fly zones, while the local authorities are responsible for enforcing these regulations to ensure the safety of local visitors. Be sure to check the relevant permits and regulations when you plan to conduct drone activities.

Inter-agency cooperation

In order to improve the efficiency of drone management, there needs to be close cooperation between central and local governments. It is important to recognize that this cooperation is not limited to the development of regulations, but also encompasses the real-time monitoring and enforcement of drone activities. Therefore, it is the responsibility of every operator to ensure that your drone operations comply with local laws and regulations.

Inter-agency cooperation is essential for effective drone management. Before flying a drone, you should refer to the announcements and regulations of the central and local governments to ensure that you comply with the current laws and regulations. This will not only help to protect your own safety, but also the safety of other visitors and the overall harmony of the environment. Under the new regulations, from 2023, drone activities in the East Coast National Scenic Area will be required to apply for the appropriate permits, so please be prepared to avoid unnecessary legal consequences for non-compliance.
