Proceeding contribution from Lord Garnier (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 20 February 2017. It occurred during Debate on bill on Cultural Property (Armed Conflicts) Bill [Lords].
Cultural Property (Armed Conflicts) Bill [Lords]
I was puzzled by the reference to the British Red Cross in a letter from the Minister, so I checked it with the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, and she, too, was a little puzzled by the reference. I am not sure that the Red Cross has anything whatever to do with this. This is all about preventing the unlawful trade in items unlawfully exported from occupied territory. The Red Cross has lots of things to worry about, but I am not sure its main aim in life is supporting this Bill.
