Résumé

This Ordinance requires the Governor to appoint a Harbour Master and defines functions and powers of the Harbour Master. It also empowers the Governor to declare ports of St. Helena and lays down rules for the proper conduct of vessels approaching and mooring in harbours and landing places of St. Helena. The harbour master shall have the control and management of ports in St Helena. The Harbour Master may give directions applicable to a particular vessel, to all vessels, or to a specified class of vessels in harbour waters for the purpose of - (a) ensuring the safety of moored vessels at, or to property at, or forming part of, any landing place; or (b) securing the efficient conduct of the business of boarding, unloading, arriving at or departing from any landing place. The Harbour Master may give a direction requiring the immediate removal of a vessel from or to any other location within harbour waters if the vessel is making any unlawful or improper use of harbour waters or any landing place. The Governor in Council may make Regulations for the further and better execution of this Ordinance and, without limiting this power, such Regulations may provide for, among other things, the licensing of vessels, or any class of vessel permitted to operate in harbour waters.
