Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order varies those provisions of the North Eastern Sea Fisheries District Order 1986 which relate to the constitution of the Committee and the expenses payable by the constituent authorities, in consequence of the changes to the local Government areas contained in the Cleveland (Structural Change) Order 1995 (S.I. 1995 No. 187) and the Humberside (Structural Change) Order 1995 (S.I. 1995 No. 600).

Cleveland County Council and Humberside County Council cease to be constituent authorities of the Committee, while East Riding of Yorkshire Council, Hartlepool District Council, Kingston Upon Hull City Council, North East Lincolnshire District Council, North Lincolnshire District Council and Redcar and Cleveland District Council, all become constituent Councils (article 2(5) and the Schedule).

The reference in the 1986 Order to South Tyneside Borough Council is corrected to South Tyneside Metropolitan Borough Council and the reference to Sunderland Borough Council is varied to reflect the grant to Sunderland of city status.

Consequential adjustments are made to the liability of constituent Councils to contribute to the Committee’s expenses (article 2(5) and the Schedule).
