To ask the Scottish Executive what submissions it received in regard to the provisions of the European Convention on the Protection of the Archaeological Heritage and what representations it has made to Her Majesty's Government in regard to implementation of the Convention.

The answer

Answered by Elaine Murray on 29 May 2002 · 14 days after it was lodged, on time

We have received submissions from two MSPs and one MP, the Institute of Field Archaeologists, the Council for Scottish Archaeology and from one local museum trust about the provisions of the European Convention on the Protection of the Archaeological Heritage, generally known as the Valletta Convention. My staff in Historic Scotland have been involved in discussions with colleagues in England, Wales and Northern Ireland about the implementation of the Convention.
