29.— Where a person is convicted by a court of an offence specified in a Table F9[or under section 28(1A)] and any fishing gear or fish under section 28 is, as a statutory consequence of the conviction, forfeited, then, notwithstanding any rule of law, it is not necessary for the court—

(a) to pronounce the fact of such forfeiture at the time of adjudication, or

(b) to record the fact of such forfeiture in the judge’s minute book, the charge sheet or in the order of conviction.
