Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport, what progress his Department has made on the implementation of the 1954 Hague Convention for the Protection of Cultural Property in the event of armed conflict.

The Convention and its Protocols came into force for the UK on 12th December 2017. In November 2017, we announced and published measures to ensure the effective implementation of the Convention, including a list of cultural property in the UK which we consider to be protected by the Convention and measures to regulate the use of the cultural emblem and protect its integrity.
