Fishing Vessels (Amendment No. 2) Regulations, 2020 (L.N. 236 of 2020).

These provisions supplement the Fishing Vessels Regulations by inserting new regulation 24 on transitory provisions. This new regulation stipulates that all effects at law of the provisions of regulation 9 (concerning the temporary register), inclusive of any terms therein provided, shall be suspended throughout the year 2020. The Director responsible for fisheries and aquaculture may, by order in the Gazette, extend the period of suspension due to extraordinary circumstances affecting the fishing industry. These regulations were adopted in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.
