When a ship is wrecked, you need to figure out how much it is worth. This is called the valuation of the wreck. A law about this used to exist, but it was repealed on 16 October 2003, by section 20(2) of the Maritime Transport Amendment Act 1999. You can find more information about this change in the law. The repealed law was section 118 of the Maritime Transport Act 1994.
