HC Deb 25 June 1968 vol 767 c54W
68. Mr. Ronald Bell

asked the President of the Board of Trade where the cannon raised from the supposed wreck of the warship "Association" in the Scilly Isles at present are; and what he intends to do with them.

Mr. J. W. P. Mallalieu

The cannon are in the legal possession of the Receiver of Wreck for the Isles of Scilly. If no claim to ownership is established within one year from the date on which the Receiver took possession they will be sold as prescribed in the Merchant Shipping Acts.
