Anti-seizure legislation
Anti-seizure legislation
- London DCMS 2006
- DCMS Consultation Paper .
Exhibitions of a multi-cultural nature are playing an integral part in UK museums and galleries. Unfortunately, the United Kingdom does not have legislation granting immunity from seizure to items lent to exhibitions. As a consequence of this, it is not possible to give a guarantee that an exhibition piece would not be liable to seizure in this country. This paper considers whether it is appropriate for the United Kingdom to enact anti-seizure legislation protecting items for exhibition, and if so, what form such legislation should take.
