Abstract

This Order confers on Grant Campbell for a period of 15 years the right of several fishery for scallops in part of Little Loch Broom (art. 3). The part of Little Loch Broom to which the Order applies is described in the Schedule. The Order requires the harvesting of scallops under the right of several fishery to be carried out manually by divers and restricts the deposit of juvenile scallops taken from outside the fishery within the boundaries of the fishery (art. 4). The Order specifies creels as implements of fishing the use of which is permitted within the fishery (art. 5). The Order prohibits the assignation or other transfer of the right of several fishery without the prior written consent of Scottish Ministers (art. 6). The Order requires the limits of the area to be clearly marked and maintained (art. 7). By virtue of section 2 of the Sea Fisheries (Shellfish) Act 1967 this Order confers on the applicant the exclusive right to deposit, propagate, fish for and take scallops within the area.
