act on control of strategic goods of particular importance for health and safety 29 pages in slovenian and english the act introduces conditions and limitations for any activity that includes strategic goods of particular security importance thus preventing its possible misuse. it establishes a controlled environment within which only legal and allowed activities are conducted which are in compliance with the act and international legislation. the act uses a comprehensive approach as it provides for control of all phases of a life-cycle of strategic goods and all activities related to it. it is of a preventive nature in its basic intention. instead of regulating one strategic activity export alone it focuses on the subjects performing strategic activities. the control of strategic goods is thus shifted to its origin which is easier to control than the activity itself. the act provides for several mechanisms which can be applied as modules dependent on the importance of a certain type or grou of strategic goods. the act employs two types of control mechanisms. preliminary or preventive mechanisms enable preliminary evaluation of circumstances and are implemented as a licence for conducting a strategicactivity either for a liable person or an activity itself . in practice these mechanism is only applied to strategic goods or activities for which the strictest control is requested by international control regimes or justified by the intents and purposes of this act. for all other events the act provides for softer approach and transfers the power of applying these soft measures to the government. it may in its regulations define exceptions for which softer general control mechanisms apply and for which they may be omitted entirely. these soft mechanisms account for the second type of control mechanism the so called later mechanisms. these do not impose any limitations to the liable persons in advance instead their fulfilment is assumed in a good faith and is checked during regular enforcement activities. the act takes use of eu regulation 1334 2000 ec for the export control of strategic goods extending its export control provisions to the goods that is not covered by the regulation itself
