Works of Art (Exports)

HC Deb 23 May 1977 vol 932 c341W

Mr. Newton

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will furnish a list of those EEC countries which operate a tax on the export of antiques and works of art, and indicate the rates.

Mr. Robert Sheldon

From the information available I understand that no EEC countries charge a tax on exports of antiques and works of art to other EEC countries.
