Explanatory note

These Regulations replace the Coast Protection (Notices) (Scotland) Regulations 1950. They provide forms of notices of proposed coast protection work under sections 5 and 8 of the Coast Protection Act 1949 and provide for service on additional interested parties and for service of notices of objection. The estimated cost of works which require publication of notices in the Edinburgh Gazette, as well as in a local newspaper, is increased from £50,000 to £500,000.
