NORTH SEA FISHERIES ACT 1893 - SECT 6

Enforcement of Act.

6. For the purpose of enforcing the provisions of this Act in the case of
British and foreign vessels, whether within or beyond the North Sea limits,
all British and foreign sea fishery officers respectively within the meaning
of the Sea Fisheries Act, 1883, shall have the same powers, and be entitled to
the same protection, as they have and are entitled to for the purpose of
enforcing the provisions of that Act in the case of British and foreign
sea fishing boats respectively.

Provided that in the case of a vessel not being either a sea fishing boat or a
vessel habitually employed in dealing with fishermen the power of a sea
fishery officer to take the vessel to any port shall not be exercised, unless
the sea fishery officer is satisfied that its exercise is necessary for the
suppression of grave disorder.
