(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order provides that the Pilotage Act 1987 shall apply to the Harwich Haven Authority as if their harbour included a defined area within the Walton Backwaters, described more specifically via the coordinates provided in article 2.

This has the effect that the harbour authority shall exercise the pilotage functions conferred on them by the Act as competent harbour authority in respect of this extended area.
