Explanatory note

These regulations amend the Diseases of Fish Regulations 1984 by substituting a new schedule for Schedule 1 to those regulations, which contains the form of licence to import live fish or eggs of fish. The new schedule amends the form of licence so as to provide for the granting of licences for the importation of live fish of the salmon family as well as of live freshwater fish and live eggs of fish of the salmon family or of freshwater fish, if there is in force an order under section 1(6) of the Diseases of Fish Act 1937. Some drafting amendments to the form of licence are also made.
