Abstract
This Order prescribes and adopts Council Regulation (EC) No. 850 of 1998, as amended, which establishes technical measures for the conservation of fishery resources, and provides that any infringement of the Regulation is an infringement of the Order. Provision has been made in this Order for the automatic enforcement of future Council Regulations and Commission Regulations amending or replacing any of the Regulations prescribed and adopted in this Order. The provisions of the Council Regulation (being measures for the conservation of fishery resources through technical measures for the protection of juveniles of marine organisms) and Commission Regulation (EEC) No. 3440/84 (being measures of conservation of fish stocks and rational exploitation of fisheries) in so far as they relate to the State, including the exclusive fishery limits of the State, are hereby prescribed and adopted and accordingly any infringement of the Council Regulation within these limits (or, as the case may be, within the State) after the commencement of this Order, shall be an infringement of this Order.
