Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order varies the prohibition contained in article 4 of the River Tummel Catchment Area Protection (Renewal) Order 1991 (“the 1991 Order”) which prohibits fishing for or taking freshwater fish in inland waters in the area prescribed without legal right or without written permission from someone having such a right.

The effect of the variation is to continue the 1991 Order in force for an unlimited period.

The prescribed area referred to is the whole catchment area of the River Tummel upstream of its confluence with the River Tay at Ballinluig and lying within Tayside, Highland and Strathclyde Regions but excluding that part of the catchment area of Loch Ericht lying within Highland Region and delineated by a continuous green line on the aftermentioned map. The area is illustrated on a map attached to the River Tummel Catchment Area Protection Order 1983 (“the 1983 Order”) and is defined by reference to a detailed large scale map which may be inspected at the Scottish Office Agriculture and Fisheries Department, Pentland House, Robb’s Loan, Edinburgh on any working day between 10.00 am and 4.00 pm.

The map annexed to and forming part of this note gives a general guide to the boundaries of the prescribed area.

The 1983 Order was renewed in accordance with the Orders listed in footnote (a) to article 2.
