Abstract

This Order amends the Schedule to the Territorial Waters Order in Council 1964 by redefining specified points between Cape Wrath and the Mull of Kintyre which are joined to form baselines from which the breadth of the territorial sea adjacent thereto is measured. The amendments make minor changes which have been shown to be necessary by new charts of the area.
