3U.K.By the Transfer of Functions (Trade and Industry) Order 1983, S.I. 1983/1127, the functions of the Secretary of State for Trade (who succeeded to the functions of the Board of Trade under previous Orders) relating to shipping were transferred to the Secretary of State for Transport. This effect on the numerous references to the Board of Trade is not noted in the Table.

4U.K.By Schedule 1, paragraph 1 to the Customs and Excise Management Act 1979 (c.2) references to the Commissioners of Customs or to officers of customs in pre—1.4.1909 (when the respective Commissioners and their officers were assimilated) enactments became references to the Commissioners of Customs and Excise and officers of customs and excise respectively. This effect is not noted in the Table.

5U.K.Schedule 4, paragraph 2 of the 1993 Act effected general changes in the terminology used in the Merchant Shipping Acts. These included—

(a)assimilating “ship” and “vessel” so that generally only “ship” is used;

(b)enabling use to be made in the many contexts where the provision has one or other of these meanings of the expressions “United Kingdom waters” and “national waters”; and

(c)substituting its “equipment” for the tackle, equipments, furniture or apparel of a ship.

These changes in terminology are not noted against the numerous provisions affected.

6U.K.The general conversion of then-existing fines in terms of amounts of money into levels on the standard scale effected by section 46 of the Criminal Justice Act 1982 (c.48) is not noted in the Table against the numerous provisions affected by the conversion; nor is the general increase in summary penalties effected in pre-1949 enactments by section 31(6) of the Criminal Law Act 1977 (c.45). But specific alterations are noted.

7U.K.As regards offences, paragraph 74 of Schedule 4 to the 1993 Act made three changes. These were—

(a)the substitution of “intentionally” for “ wilfully ”;

(b)the substitution of “permitting” for “ suffering ” or “allowing” a thing to be done; and

(c)the substitution of “excuse” for “ cause ” in the expression “reasonable cause”.

These are not noted against the provisions affected.

8U.K.Section 1(1)(c) of the Merchant Shipping (Mercantile Marine Fund) Act 1898 (c.44) translated all references to that Fund into references to the General Lighthouse Fund constituted by that section. These are not noted in the Table against the numerous provisions affected.
