1.

Please refer to our telephone conversation concerning a Treaty on "Illegal Artistic Treasures".

2. I can find no trace of a Treaty of that title.

The only Treaty that resembles this is:-

THE CONVENTION ON THE MEANS OF PROHIBITING AND PREVENTING THE ILLICIT EXPORT, IMPORT AND TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP OF CULTURAL PROPERTY

+

Adopted Paris, 14 November 1970.

The United Kingdom is not a party to this Convention.
