EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Instrument and does not purport to be a legal interpretation)

The purpose of these Regulations is to revoke the Safety of Fishing Vessels Regulations 2007 ( S.I. No. 563 of 2007 ). The 2007 Regulations are no longer required because powers and arrangements for the raising of sunken vessels are now provided in Part 5 of the Merchant Shipping Act 2010 (No. 14 of 2010).
