The Order includes other provisions with respect to the Commissioners' constitution including provisions for the co-option of up to two additional Commissioners. The Order amends existing statutory requirements as to the Commissioners' accounts, provides for the establishment of advisory bodies and repeals or revokes certain statutory provisions. The Order also confers on the Commissioners powers to give general and special directions to vessels in the harbour.

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.
