“…This is a complete inversion of the governing logic of the 1980s and 1990s, when the emphasis was on limiting state liabilities and increasing “personal responsibility” for life risks (Peeters ). Christopher Ansell () has suggested that we are witnessing the emergence of a “protective state” whose most important role is defending citizens from harms. Ansell focused on the protection of individuals against everyday harms.…”

Galima teigti, kad kontroliuodama ūkinę veiklą valstybė įgyvendina ir apsauginę savo funkciją (Ansell, 2020). Nubrėždamas principines ūkio subjektų veiklos kontrolės mechanizmo formavimo nuostatas, nustatančias ne tik ūkinės veiklos sąlygas, ūkinės veiklos ribojimus ar draudimus, bet ir kontrolę, kaip ūkio subjektai laikosi teisės aktų nustatytų reikalavimų (kas detaliau ir bus analizuojama šiame straipsnyje), Konstitucinis Teismas išaiškina, jog įstatymų leidžiamoji ir vykdomoji valdžios turi plačią diskreciją, nepažeisdamos Konstitucijos, teisės aktais reguliuoti ūkinę veiklą (Konstitucinio Teismo 2006 m. gegužės 31 d. nutarimas), atitinkamai ir nustatyti kontrolės formą (priemones).…”
