The Channel Tunnel (International Arrangements) (Amendment No. 4) Order 2001
This Order amends provisions of the Channel Tunnel (International Arrangements) Order 1993 (“the principal Order”) which give effect to material provisions of the Additional Protocol mentioned in article 2(4) of the principal Order. The Additional Protocol supplements the system of juxtaposed frontier controls set up under the Protocol mentioned in article 1 of the principal Order (“the Sangatte Protocol”). Under the Additional Protocol, supplementary control zones are accorded to France in the United Kingdom, and to the United Kingdom in France, for the purposes of the carrying out, respectively, of French and United Kingdom immigration controls. Those supplementary control zones are additional to the control zones accorded for the purpose of carrying out frontier controls under the Sangatte Protocol. The provisions of the principal Order which give effect to the Additional Protocol were inserted by the Channel Tunnel (International Arrangements) (Amendment No. 3) Order 2001 (S.I. 2001/1544), which came into force on 25th May 2001. The amendments made by the present Order clarify or supplement certain of those provisions.
