Subsection (2):
Where any wreck is on or near the coast of the State and there is no harbour authority having functions under this section to raise and remove or otherwise render harmless that wreck, the Commissioners shall, if in their opinion that wreck is, or is likely to become, an obstruction or danger to navigation or to lifeboats engaged in the lifeboat service, have the functions set out in subsection (4).
The functions exercisable by the appropriate authority by virtue of this section are to take possession of, and raise and remove, or otherwise render harmless, the whole or any part of the wreck; to light or buoy, subject where appropriate to the approval of the Commissioners the wreck until it is raised and removed or otherwise rendered harmless.
This is a continuation of the other sections.
