Question to the Ministry of Defence:
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, pursuant to the Answer of 16 January 2024 to Question 9179 on HMS Prince of Wales, who is conducting investigations into the illegal salvage of the wreck of HMS Prince of Wales; and when he expects those investigations to conclude.
The Malaysian authorities have primacy regarding the investigations into the illegal salvage of the wreck of HMS Prince of Wales, as investigations are ongoing it would be inappropriate to speculate when these will conclude.
