ordin the case of an order under subsection (1)(a), by fishing boats registered in a specified country,and whether the order is general or limited in scope it may provide for exceptions from the prohibition contained in it.3Where any fishing boat is used in contravention of any prohibition imposed by an order under this section, the master, the owner and the charterer (if any) are each guilty of an offence under this subsection.4An order under this section, if made with the consent of the Treasury given for the purposes of this subsection, may authorise the making of a charge for a licence under this section.Such an order shall specify a maximum charge and may specify different maxima in relation to different classes of licence.4AThe provision that may be made in an order by virtue of subsection (4) above includes—aprovision for the amount of any charge to be specified in, or determined in accordance with provision made by, the order;bdifferent provision in relation to different classes of licence;cprovision for no charge to be payable in such circumstances as may be specified in the order.5A licence under this section shall be granted to the owner or charterer in respect of a named vessel and may authorise fishing generally or may confer limited authority by reference to, in particular,—athe area within which fishing is authorised;bthe periods, times or particular voyages during which fishing is authorised;cthe descriptions and quantities of fish which may be taken; ordthe method of sea fishing.6A licence under this section may authorise fishing either unconditionally or subject to such conditions as appear to the Minister granting the licence to be necessary or expedient for the regulation of sea fishing, and in particular a licence may contain conditions—aas to the landing of fish or parts of fish taken under the authority of the licence (including specifying the ports at which the catch is to be landed); orbas to the use to which the fish taken may be put:and if a licence condition is broken the master, the owner and the charterer (if any) of the vessel named in the licence are each guilty of an offence under this subsection.6ZAThe conditions subject to which a licence may be granted under this section include conditions imposed for the purposes of—aconserving or enhancing the natural beauty or amenity of marine or coastal areas (including their geological or physiographical features) or of any features of archaeological or historic interest in such areas; orbconserving flora or fauna which are dependent on, or associated with, a marine or coastal environment.6AThe conditions subject to which a licence may be granted under this section may differ as between different vessels or between vessels of different descriptions.6BA licence containing a condition restricting the time which a vessel may spend at sea may make provision as to the circumstances in which time is, or is not, to count as time spent at sea.6CThe Ministers shall by order make provision as to the principles on which the time which vessels may spend at sea is to be arrived at for the purposes of any condition included in a licence by virtue of subsection (6)(c) above.6DBefore considering what action to take under subsection (6C) above, the Ministers shall first give due consideration to a scheme of decommissioning in order to achieve a significant reduction in the capacity of the fishing fleet.7The Minister granting a licence under this section may require the master, the owner and the charterer (if any) of the vessel named in the licence to provide him with such statistical information as he may direct, and a person who fails without reasonable excuse to comply with such a requirement is guilty of an offence under this subsection.7AAny person who—afor the purpose of obtaining a licence under this section; orbin purported compliance with subsection (7) above,furnishes information which he knows to be false in a material particular or recklessly furnishes information which is false in a material particular shall be guilty of an offence under this subsection.8The licensing powers conferred by this section may be exercised so as to limit the number of fishing boats, or of any class of fishing boats, engaged in fishing in any area, or in fishing in any area for any description of fish, to such extent as appears to the Ministers necessary or expedient for the regulation of sea fishing.9A licence under this section—amay be varied from time to time; andbmay be revoked or suspended, if this appears to the Minister who granted the licence to be necessary or expedient for the regulation of sea fishing.9AWhere an order under this section prohibits fishing in a specified area for a specified description of sea fish there shall be returned to the sea forthwith—aany sea fish of that description taken on board a fishing boat in contravention of the order; andbexcept so far as the order otherwise provides, any sea fish of that description taken on board a fishing boat in that area in the course of fishing for sea fish of a different description;but, where the order applies only to fishing by a specified method or during a specified period or by boats of a specified description, paragraph (b) above applies only if the fish are caught by that method, during that period or by a boat of that description.9BWhere subsection (9A) above is not complied with in the case of any fishing boat, the master, the owner and the charterer (if any) shall each be guilty of an offence under that subsection.10If a licence is varied, revoked or suspended the Minister who granted it may, if he considers it appropriate in all the circumstances of the case, refund the whole or part of any charge made for the licence.11The Ministers may make arrangements for any of their licensing powers under this section (but not the power to make orders under subsection (1)) to be exercised by other persons on their behalf.11AAs respects any function under this section, other than a function of making an order,—athe Marine Management Organisation may make arrangements for the function to be exercised on its behalf by the Scottish Ministers, andbthe Scottish Ministers may make arrangements for the function to be exercised on their behalf by the Marine Management Organisation.An arrangement under this subsection does not affect a person's responsibility for the exercise of the function.11BA person exercising a function on behalf of another by virtue of subsection (11A) above may charge that other such fees as the person considers reasonable in respect of the cost of doing so.12In this section relevantBritish fishing boat” means a fishing boat which is not a Scottish fishing boat andwhich is registered in the United Kingdom or is British-owned, and “foreign fishing boat” means a fishing boat which is not so registered or owned and which is not a Scottish fishing boat.S. 4 substituted by Fishery Limits Act 1976 (c. 86), s. 3S. 4 extended by S.I. 1978/280, art. 2 and 1978/281, art. 4S. 4: certain functions made exercisable in or as regards N.I. for the purposes of 1998 c. 47, ss. 6, 86 and transferred (28.3.2002) by S.I. 2002/790, art. 3(1), Sch. 1 para. 3(1)(2)(d)S. 4(1): certain functions made exercisable in or as regards N.I. for the purposes of 1998 c. 47, ss. 6, 86 and transferred (28.3.2002) by S.I. 2002/790, art. 3(1), Sch. 1 para. 3(1)(2)(c)Words in s. 4(1)(12) inserted (1.7.1999) by S.I. 1999/1820 art. 4, Sch. 2 Pt.
