The purpose of this Bill is to amend the Marine

that may be prescribed for offences against the Ordinance,
the regulations and the By-laws of the Fish Marketing Organisation, and to remove the offence of buying fish
wholesale other than at a wholesale fish market.

The Marine Fish (Marketing) Ordinance is intended
mainly to promote the orderly landing and wholesale
marketing of marine fish. To this end, the Ordinance
prohibits the wholesale of marine fish other than at a
market, and the landing of marine fish other than at a
place specified in the regulations unless a permit to do
so has been obtained.
