520			_aExamines the issue of seabed ownership. This issue is growing in importance due to the increasing number of offshore developments. These include oil and gas rigs, wind farms, wave and tidal power generators and undersea cables. Crown ownership of foreshore, which extends for 12 miles, is presumed but can be rebutted by express grant or 60 years' adverse possession. Ownership of the continental shelf and deep seabed is for at least 200 miles except in the case of agreements with other nations. Leases and licences of the seabed are required for development or mineral extraction.
