The Sea Fish Licensing (Variation) Order 1987
This Order varies the Sea Fish Licensing Order 1983, as varied, (“the 1983 Order”), which requires a licence to be obtained for fishing by British fishing boats in specified areas of sea for the principal species of sea fish. Boats not more than ten metres long, other than when fishing for herring in specified areas, are excepted from that requirement; this Order removes from that exception such boats fishing for herring in the Firth of Clyde (article 4).
