I have no statutory powers to direct the removal of a wreck from a beach. The removal of such a wreck is a matter, in the first instance, for the owner. A harbour or conservancy authority or the Commissioners of Irish Lights can also remove a wreck if they consider it an obstruction or danger to navigation.
