legal framework, partially adequate

A partially adequate legal framework may for example cover some but not all types of heritage. Some legal frameworks may be considered as not up to date with contemporary needs and challenges. In some cases, there may be multilayer and multidisciplinary legal frameworks in place, but with gaps when it comes to identifying the full breadth of cultural and/or natural heritage.

Note: A legal framework may be considered adequate, although it is not specifically directed towards the requirements of World Heritage as the question concerns all cultural and/or natural heritage.
