Fisheries (Moratorium on Molesting, Taking or Killing of Turtles) Regulations, 1997 (L.N. No. 65 of 1997).

These Regulations revoke the Fisheries (Moratorium on Molesting, Taking or Killing of Turtles) Regulations, 1995 contained in Legal Notice No. 32 of 1995.
These Regulations amend the Fisheries Regulations by inserting a provision introducing a moratorium on molesting, taking or killing of turtles. No person shall, during the moratorium, in any way molest, or take or kill any turtle of any size or sell, offer or expose for sale or export any turtle shell or meat. The Minister may grant exemptions from this rule. The Minster may, if he or she considers it necessary or desirable, extend the prohibition on activities regrading turtles.
