Proceeding contribution from Mark Fisher (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 5 March 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Tribunals, Courts and Enforcement Bill [HL].


Tribunals, Courts and Enforcement Bill [Lords]

Absolutely. Once immunity, and therefore protection from a suit—brought by somebody who believed that they had a better claim to ownership of the work—had been gained, while the immunity was in force and the object was in the country under an immune order, it could be taken off to Sotheby’s or Christie’s and sold. That is not satisfactory, and I am sure it is not what the Government intend.
