There is no clear vision of roles and 

responsibilities of the rangers in enforcing the 

law. 

   Tiny institutional level of the Unit (section) 

limiting career path and motivation.  

   Lack of approved appropriate organizational 

structure for the Unit. 

    Limited number of qualified rangers and support 

staff. 

   Inappropriate legal contractual arrangements of 

the rangers, which impeded granting power to 

effect seizures in respect to Environment Law 4 of 

1994.   

   Inadequate equipment and facilities to support 

rangers  activities. 

   Insufficient official coordination between the 

major stakeholders rather than the governorate 

such as borders guards, police force, Ministry of 

Agriculture (Fishery Development Org.), Ministry 

of Tourism  etc.  

   Limited role of the NGOs in raising 

environmental awareness and liaison with 

different beneficiaries.
