Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order varies the provisions of the Order, dated 15th February 1893 which created the Sussex Sea Fisheries District by providing that the district shall comprise so much of the sea as is within six miles of the baselines (formerly three miles).
This Order also substitutes a new definition of “the baselines” to comply with the judgment of the European Court of Justice in Re Territorial Sea: EC Commission v. United Kingdom (Case 146/89) [1991] 3 CMLR 649.
Copies of the Order which created the Sussex Sea Fisheries District are available from the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, Nobel House, 17 Smith Square, London SW1P 3JR.
