This Act regulates the operation of ferries across waterways in the state of Goa. It empowers the government to declare which ferries are public, establish new ones, and set toll rates for passengers, vehicles, and goods using these services. The state can also lease the right to collect these tolls to private individuals or companies for a limited time. To ensure compliance, the government can seize vessels or vehicles if tolls are not paid, allowing the authorities to sell the property to recover the debt and associated costs.
