(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order, which is made under section 30(2) of the Fisheries Act 1981, amends the Sea Fishing (Enforcement of Community Quotas and Third Country Fishing Measures) Order 2000 (S.I. 2000/827) ("the principal Order"). The principal Order extends to England and Wales and to Northern Ireland but does not extend to Scotland.
The effect of the present Order is to add to Schedule 1 to the principal Order a reference to Article 7 of Council Regulation 2742/1999 (O.J. No. L341, 31.12.99, p.1), which prohibits fishing by European Community vessels in certain Norwegian and Icelandic waters and to remedy a typographical error in paragraph 5 of that Schedule. For convenience, the whole of Schedule 1 is restated in the present Order.
1981 c. 29; see section 30(3) for the definitions of "enforceable Community restriction", "enforceable Community obligation" and " the Ministers'", as modified by Schedule 2, paragraph 68(5) of the Scotland Act 1998 (Consequential Modifications) (No. 2) Order 1999 (S.I. 1999/1820). The functions of the Secretary of State under section 30(2) were transferred, so far as exercisable in relation to Wales (defined in section 155(1) of the Government of Wales Act 1998 (c. 38) to include the sea adjacent to Wales out as far as the seaward boundary of the territorial sea), to the National Assembly for Wales by the National Assembly for Wales (Transfer of Functions) Order 1999 (S.I. 1999/672). Article 3(1) and Schedule 1 of the Scotland Act 1998 (Concurrent Functions) Order 1999 (S.I. 1999/1592) provide for the functions exercisable under section 30(2) to be exercised by the Ministers, concurrently with Scottish Ministers, in relation to relevant British fishing boats within the Scottish zone and Scottish fishing boats within British fishery limits but outside the Scottish zone.
S.I. 2000/827.
That is, any harbour other than a harbour to which article 2(4) refers.
