22The levying of contributions, in respect of any port or area, out of the proceeds of first sales of fresh herring, and the making of payments to herring fishermen in that port or area in order to obviate so far as possible undue differences in their earnings. A scheme conferring power to levy any such contributions or make any such payments—

(a)shall provide that those powers shall not be exercisable in respect of any port or area unless it appears to the Board that there exists among herring fishermen in that port or area a prevailing opinion in favour of the exercise of those powers; and

(b)shall secure so far as practicable that the contributions levied in respect of any port or area are sufficient to meet payments due to herring fishermen in that port or area under the scheme and, if at any time the contributions are insufficient to meet those payments, the scheme shall require the Board to make such adjustments in the rate of contributions or payments as may be necessary to make good the deficiency.

In this paragraph " first sales of fresh herring" means the first completed sales wholesale after the herring have been caught.
