(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order revokes the Food Protection (Emergency Prohibitions) (Sea Fish) Order 1989, which contained emergency prohibitions restricting various activities in order to prevent human consumption of food rendered unsuitable for that purpose in consequence of the likely escape of toxic substances as a result of the sinking in the English Channel of the m.v. Perintis on or about 13th March 1989.
