(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order varies the Portland Harbour Fishery Order 1989 by extending for ten years the period for which the right of several fishery in Portland Harbour is granted to Portland Oystermen Limited (“the Company”) (article 2).

The Order also substitutes “the definitive map” referred to in the principal Order with the map referred to in this Order; amends the definition of the Company to reflect a change in the address of its registered office; and varies the definition of the fishery (article 2).

The situation and extent of the several fishery are shown on the definitive map described in article 1(2) of the principal Order, as amended by this Order, which may be inspected during office hours at the offices of the Company at Hethfelton Hollow, Wareham, Dorset BH20 6HJ and at the Fisheries Department, Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, 17 Smith Square, London SW1P 3JR.
