The Crouch Harbour Authority Advisory Committee was established by Crouch Harbour Act 1974.
The Advisory Committee has a very wide ranging interest in, and influence over the affairs of the harbour: the Act requires that the Harbour Authority ‘shall, except in a case of special urgency where it is not reasonably practicable to do so, consult the Advisory Committee on all matters substantially affecting the preservation, protection, regulation,management, maintenance and improvement of the harbour and the navigation thereof, and particularly…
- any application for the grant of a Works Licence; or
- any proposal to impose or vary any rates or charges; or
- any proposal to dredge, lay down moorings in, or change any navigational mark, light or channel of, the harbour.
The Advisory Committee has 27 members. The Crouch Harbour Act specifies that the members of Advisory Committee shall be nominated by certain established, named organisations representing particular interests including: landowners, yachting interests, naturalists, fisheries, nature conservation, boatbuilders, Trinity House, Port of London Authority, commercial users, wildfowlers etc.
Since the 1974 Act the relevant organisations have changed and the Act provides for this so that at present the members of Advisory Committee and their nominating organisations are:
