HC Deb 16 December 1985 vol 89 c30W

Mr. Wilson asked the Secretary of State for Energy if the Continental Shelf Jurisdiction Order 1968 has been repealed.

Mr. Buchanan-Smith

The Continental Shelf (Jurisdiction) Order 1968 (SI 1968/892) was revoked by the Continental Shelf (Jurisdiction) Order 1980 (SI 1980/184), which re-enacts the provisions of the 1968 order (and subsequent amendments), and also extends jurisdiction to additional designated areas.
