The National Assembly for Wales makes the following Order in exercise of the powers conferred on it by sections 1, 15(3) and 20(1) of the Sea Fish (Conservation) Act 1967(1), and of all other powers enabling it in that behalf:—
1967 c. 84. Section 1 was substituted by the Fisheries Act 1981 (c. 29) section 19(1), and was amended by paragraph 38(a) of Schedule 13 to the Merchant Shipping Act 1995 (c. 21) and paragraph 43(2) and (3) of Schedule 2 to the Scotland Act 1998 (Consequential Modifications) (No.2) Order 1999 (S.I. 1999/1820). Section 15(3) was substituted by the Sea Fisheries Act 1968 (c. 77) Schedule 1, paragraph 38(3) and amended by the Fishery Limits Act 1976 (c. 86) Schedule 2, paragraph 16(1) and S.I. 1999/1820, paragraph 43(2)(b).
By virtue of article 2(a) of the National Assembly for Wales (Transfer of Functions) Order 1999 (S.I. 1999/672) the functions exercisable under sections 1, 15(3) and 20(1) of the 1967 Act were transferred to the National Assembly in so far as exercisable in relation to Wales.
Wales was defined in section 155(1) of the Government of Wales Act 1998 (c. 38) as including “the sea adjacent to Wales out as far as the seaward boundary of the territorial sea”. In respect of waters beyond Wales these functions remain exercisable by the Ministers.
See section 22(2) of the 1967 Act for definitions of “the Ministers” for the purposes of sections 1 and 15(3). Section 22(2) was amended by the Fisheries Act 1981, sections 19(2)(d) and 45(b) and (c) and by S.I. 1999/1820, paragraph 43(12) of Schedule 2.
