Opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee on the Proposal for a Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council on the return of cultural objects unlawfully removed from the territory of a Member State (Codified version)

COM(2007) 873 final — 2007/0299 (COD)

(2008/C 162/08)

On 8 February 2008, the Council decided to consult the European Economic and Social Committee, under Article 95 of the Treaty establishing the European Community, on the

Proposal for a Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council on the return of cultural objects unlawfully removed from the territory of a Member State (Codified version)

Since the Committee unreservedly endorses the content of the proposal and feels that it requires no comment on its part, it decided, at its 442nd plenary session of 13 and 14 February 2008 (meeting of 13 February 2008), by 141 votes to one and one abstention, to issue an opinion endorsing the proposed text.

 

Brussels, 13 February 2008.

The President

of the European Economic and Social Committee
