The South-west Territorial Waters (Prohibition of Pair Trawling) (Amendment) Order 2005

This Order amends the South-west Territorial Waters (Prohibition of Pair Trawling) Order 2004 so that those vessels which use nets where no individual mesh is greater than 300mm are not prevented from pair trawling. The effect is that those vessels which do use nets, any part of which incorporate mesh of greater than 300mm, are prohibited from pair trawling.
