Tubantia Property Law?

(sorry for cross-posting. The subject matter is OT for both groups.) AFAIK in the UK there used to be a legal text commonly referred to as the "Tubantia Property Law". I suppose this law was named after the jurisdiction over the salvage rights claims by two parties for the Tubantia wreck (1924?), which apparently caused quite a stir at the time. Can any of you people provide me with the full text of - either the ruling or the actual lawtext ? (I tried different search engines/metasearchers, to no avail.) In dutch : In het Verenigd Koninkrijk bestond/bestaat er blijkbaar zoiets als een "Tubantia Property Law". Naar ik vermoed zou de berging van de kostbaarheden uit het wrak van de Tubantia (1924?) voor heel wat heisa hebben gezorgd. Wellicht was die Tubantia Law daar het rechtstreekse gevolg van. Is er iemand die mij daar de exacte tekst van kan bezorgen? ><)))))°> EGKW Don't try to answer me personally on present address.
