# The Swanage Harbour Revision Order 2001

S.I. 2001/2984 · made 31 August 2001 · revised to 1 October 2001

This Order amends the Swanage Pier Order 1895 which governs the functions of the Swanage Pier Company, the harbour authority for Swanage Pier. The main effects of the Order are to extend the Company’s powers to construct certain facilities by enabling it to permit other persons to construct such facilities, by enabling it to let the site on which the facilities are to be constructed, and by extending from 7 years to 21 years the period for which the Company may grant a lease of such a site or facilities. The Order also repeals a provision requiring the Board of Trade (now the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry) to be sent a copy of the Company’s annual account.
