The Prohibition of Keeping or Release of Live Fish (Specified Species) (England) (Amendment) Order 2014

This Order amends the Prohibition of Keeping or Release of Live Fish (Specified Species) (England) Order 2014 (“the principal Order”) by limiting the application of that Order in two ways. Firstly, the effect of the amendment made by article 2(2) is that the principal Order no longer applies to the keeping or release of fish in “inland waters”. The waters to which the principal Order still applies include water such as certain garden ponds, aquariums and some fish farms. Secondly, the effect of the amendment made by article 2(4) is that the requirement to obtain a licence only applies in relation to freshwater fish. This excludes the marine species belonging to the taxonomic orders listed in the Schedule from the application of the Order.
