A campaign to raise funds for legal advice on the government’s ivory ban proposals has received “a positive response”, according to dealer body BADA, which is organising the endeavour on behalf of the antiques sector (ATG No 2341).
BADA is coordinating efforts by fellow associations LAPADA and SOFAA to get legal opinion on Defra’s proposals, which involve a near-total ban on the sale of antique ivory with few exceptions.
