§ Mr. HoyI beg to move Amendment No. 15, in page 19, line 20, at end insert:
15A. In section 3(4) (application of section 6 of the White Fish and Herring Industries Act 1953 to vessels and persons), for the words ' boats (as defined by the Herring Industry Act 1935)' there shall be substituted the word ' vessels'.The purpose and effect of this Amendment is to bring the wording of Section 3 (4) of the Sea Fish Industry Act, 1962 into line with that used elsewhere in order to facilitate consolidation. The word "vessel" is now generally used in connection with grants for vessels engaged in the white fish or herring industry. This Amendment is similar to that relating to Section 6(4) of the 1953 Act.
§ Amendment agreed to.
§ Mr. BuchanI beg to move Amendment No. 16, in page 20, line 40, at end insert:
'and at the end there shall be inserted the following proviso—Provided that nothing in the first paragraph of this section shall apply to an offence under section 5, 6 or 10 of the Sea Fisheries Act 1968."'.This is a fairly minor change. It will avoid the overlap between the provisions of Section 7 of the 1885 Act and those of Clause 14 in respect of offences under 824 Clauses 5, 6 and 10. It is purely a tidying-up point.
