Legislating spaces like these seems like an individual matter to me, belonging to each country so that they can tailor their efforts to the needs of their spaces.

In an ideal world, this would be great, but I don’t know how this would be properly implemented.
Depends on the implementation, practicality, and what exactly that entails.
