Fisheries (Consolidation) Act, 1959

Apportionment of valuations of transferable fisheries.

196.—(1) Where a transferable fishery forms part of a fishery or right of fishery which is valued as a whole under the Valuation Acts and an appointed day has been fixed in respect of the fishery district in which such transferable fishery is situate, the Minister shall as soon as conveniently may be furnish the appropriate rating authority with particulars of such transferable fishery, and request that separate valuations be made (either by apportionment or revaluation) in respect of such transferable fishery and the residue of the fishery or right of fishery so valued as a whole, and such valuations shall have effect as on and from the date on which such transferable fishery is vested in the Minister.

(2) Where any transferable fishery forms portion of a connected body of fishing rights or is appurtenant or adjacent to a demesne or private grounds or a private residence and is owned by the person who owns such connected body of fishing rights or such demesne, private grounds or private residence, and an appointed day has been fixed in respect of the fishery district in which such transferable fishery is situate, such person may apply to the appropriate rating authority for such district to have the remaining fishing rights, demesne, private grounds or residence revalued, but such revaluation shall not take effect until the date on which such transferable fishery is vested in the Minister.
