Explanatory note

(This note is not part of the Order) — published with the instrument by the department that made it. © Crown copyright, reused under the Open Government Licence v3.0.

The number of vessels which can be accommodated at Perth harbour is limited by the size and number of berths available. As the number and size of vessels calling at Perth harbour have been increasing there is a need to increase the capacity of the harbour. This Order authorises the Tayside Regional Council to extend the existing Berth 1 at the harbour. The applicants for this Order are the Tayside Regional Council.

What Parliament said about it

Hansard was searched for this instrument by name and returned nothing. That is the ordinary outcome: an instrument laid under the negative procedure is usually never debated, and becomes law without a word said about it in either House.

How Parliament handled it

Parliament's Statutory Instruments service records procedure from May 2017 onwards, and this instrument predates it. That is a limit of the source, not a statement that nothing happened.
