3Powers and duties of fishery boards.

(1)Any fishery board who have reasonable ground for suspecting that any waters, not being a fish farm, are infected waters, shall forthwith report the facts to the Minister, and may take any practicable steps securing the removal of dead or dying fish from the waters.

The Minister on receiving any such report as aforesaid with respect to any waters, shall forthwith cause an investigation to be made as to whether they are infected waters.

(2)Where any area is declared by an order in force under the last foregoing section to be an infected area, the Minister may authorise any fishery board to remove any fish from any waters in that area (not being a fish farm) and to do so by such agents and by such methods (including methods otherwise illegal) as he considers to be most expedient for the purpose.

(3)Every fishery board—

(a)shall destroy or otherwise properly dispose of all fish removed under any powers conferred on them by or under this section; and

(b)shall at such times as the Minister may direct send to him a return stating the number of fish so removed and the number of fish notified to them by any occupier in accordance with the provisions of the last foregoing section as having been removed by him from any waters.
