Three proposals for a European Union law on the import of cultural goods have been tabled for ‘trilogue’ talks in November, writes Laura Chesters.
The original proposal plus others from the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union, will be discussed in the hope of forming a common position for the next stage in the legislative process.
The import of cultural goods legislation, proposed in July 2017 by the European Commission (EC), was designed to stop imports of works of art looted from warzones.
