Mr. Ashdown
asked the Parliamentary Undersecretary of State answering in respect of the Arts if he will list in the Official Report all the different types of licences operated or granted by the Office of Arts and Libraries and the year in which they first came into operation.
Mr. Waldegrave
None. However, licences for the export of works of art are issued by my hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry on the advice of my noble Friend the Minister for the Arts.
