Regulation
Abstract
These Regulations make amendments to EU Exit Statutory Instruments in order to update provisions in consequence of the European Union (Withdrawal Agreement) Act 2020, in particular, in consequence of the Northern Ireland Protocol. Regulation 2 makes amendments in order to ensure that section 30 of the Fisheries Act 1981 (c. 29) can be used for enforcement of breaches of EU law made applicable in Northern Ireland by the Northern Ireland Protocol. Regulations 3 and 4 make amendments to ensure that the retained EU law version of Regulation (EU) No 640/2010 and Regulation (EU) No 1035/2001, respectively, apply correctly with the Northern Ireland Protocol.
Regulations 5 to 7 apply provisions of retained direct EU legislation relating to illegal, unreported and unregulated ( IUU ) fishing to Northern Ireland. These provisions impose certain controls and procedures on third country fishing vessels wishing to visit United Kingdom ports. It is necessary to apply retained EU law in this area to Northern Ireland, specifically in relation to the use of ports by EU fishing vessels, to comply with obligations under the Agreement on Port State Measures to Prevent, Deter and Eliminate Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated Fishing ( the Port State Measures Agreement ), to which the UK intends to accede at the end of the implementation period Regulations 5 to 7 apply provisions of retained direct EU legislation relating to illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing to Northern Ireland.
