EXPLANATORY NOTE
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order empowers the Shoreham Port Authority (“the Port Authority”) as harbour authority for the Port of Shoreham to extend the limits of the port to include the port premises (article 3). An illustrative plan (defined in article 3) showing the port limits and port premises may be inspected during working hours at the main office of the Port Authority at Nautilus House, 90-100 Albion Street, Southwick, Brighton, BN42 4ED.
This Order confers on the Port Authority and the harbour master (defined in article 2) powers of general and special direction for the regulation and management of the harbour (articles 4 to 10).
The powers of general direction are extended to include the regulation of vehicles in the port and provision is made for a register of all in force general directions which may be inspected during working hours at the main office of the Port Authority (article 4).
This Order creates an offence of failing to comply with special or general directions, the penalty for which is a fine on summary conviction not exceeding level 4 on the standard scale (article 8).
A defence of due diligence is available to a person charged under article 8 (article 8(2)).
The Order amends paragraphs (5) and (9)(b) of Section 5 of the Shoreham Harbour Act 1937 and articles 5(2), 9(4)(b) and 21(1) of the Shoreham Port Authority Revision Order 1978 (SI 1978/647) to update the fines expressed in those instruments to level 4 on the standard scale (article 12).
An impact assessment has not been prepared for this Order as there is no, or no significant, impact predicted on businesses, charities, voluntary bodies or the public sector.
