#  Renewal of Cultural Property Advisory Committee Charter

**SUMMARY:**

The Charter of the Department of State's Cultural Property Advisory Committee has been renewed for an additional two years.

The Charter of the Cultural Property Advisory Committee has been renewed for a two-year period. The Committee was established by the Convention on Cultural Property Implementation Act of 1983. The Committee reviews requests from other States Parties to the 1970 UNESCO *Convention on the Means of Prohibiting and Preventing the Illicit Import, Export and Transfer of Ownership of Cultural Property* seeking U.S. import restrictions on archaeological or ethnological material. The Committee makes findings and recommendations to the President's designee who, on behalf of the President, determines whether to impose import restrictions. The membership of the Committee consists of private sector experts in archaeology, anthropology, or ethnology; experts in the international sale of cultural property; and representatives of museums and of the general public.
