The Bass (Specified Areas) (Prohibition of Fishing)(Variation) Order 1992
This Order varies the Bass (Specified Areas) (Prohibition of Fishing) Order 1990 (“the principal Order”) by substituting for the imperial measurement of 3 cables in the description of the Fawley Power Station area in column 1 of the Schedule to that Order the metric measurement of 556 metres being the nearest suitable metric equivalent measurement. The Order also gives effect to Council Directive 80/181/EEC (OJ No. L39, 15.2.80, p.40) on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to units of measurement, as amended by Council Directives 85/1/EEC (OJ No. L2, 3.1.85, p.11) and 89/617/EEC (OJ No. L357, 7.12.89, p.28), insofar as that Directive affects the principal Order.
