(2) Where a direction is given under this paragraph— (a) the Coroner for Treasure must conduct the investigation; (b) the Coroner for Treasure has the same functions in relation to the body and the investigation as would be the case if he or she were a senior coroner in whose area the body was situated; (c) no senior coroner, area coroner or assistant coroner has any functions in relation to the body or the investigation.
