Legal Matters
There are no laws or regulations in the UK that prohibit the scattering of ashes at sea.
Environmental Agency guidelines do have to be observed.
Ensure that anything placed into the water during the ceremony is biodegradable.
If choosing to scatter ashes within a harbour then permission does have to be obtained from the relevant harbour authority.
