Abstract

These Regulations regulate for Jersey and the territorial sea of Jersey the granting of licences to establish or maintain a fishery on any portion of the shore and bed of the sea, above or below, or partly above and partly below, low-water mark. The holder of a licence shall, subject to conditions contained in the licence, have within the limits of the fishery the exclusive right of depositing, propagating, dredging, fishing for and taking sea fish of any description to which the licence applies. In particular, the licence holder may: (a) make and maintain beds for fish specified in the licence; (b) maintain structures for the purpose of propagating such fish; and (c) collect such fish and remove them from place to place and deposit them as and where the licensee thinks fit. The fisheries shall enjoy protection in accordance with these Regulations.
