Protection of Military Remains Act 1986
- Question
- What is the procedure for designating the wrecks of vessels as protected under the Protection of Military Remains Act 1986.
- Answer
-
Candidate vessels for designation as protected places are identified as part of a rolling programme of assessment. The assessment is made against the criteria set out in the report of the 2001 Public Consultation on Military Maritime Graves and the Protection of Military Remains Act 1986 at www.mod.uk/consultations/maritime-graves/index.htm. Once approval by Secretary of State is given, designation is effected by means of a statutory instrument.
