This Order designates as a restricted area for the purposes of the Protection of Wrecks Act 1973 the area within a distance of 100 metres from the site of the wreck of the submarine HMS “A1”, which vessel the Secretary of State is satisfied ought to be protected from unauthorised interference on account of its historical and archaeological importance.
