Illustration for Fisheries Act 1996

You need to know about rules related to the territorial sea and exclusive economic zone. These rules are about regulations made under a specific Act. If a regulation was validly made under that Act, it is deemed to be validly made under section 299, as per the Territorial Sea, Contiguous Zone, and Exclusive Economic Zone Act 1977. You should look at regulations made under section 299 to understand this better. These regulations were in force before this section started, and they are still valid.
