Categorised under the topics of Art works and Cultural heritage.

leave out from `year' to end and insert `but rejects calls for the relocation of the so-called Elgin Marbles; notes that such a relocation would set a dangerous and unworkable precedent, potentially leading to requests from all nations, including the UK, for the return of historic relics to their country of origin; believes such a move would damage global understanding of different cultures and severely limit academic research; and further notes that the Elgin Marbles were acquired lawfully and have been on display to the public free of charge for over 200 years and have been excellently preserved and cared for by the British Museum.'.

This is a ammendment to 433.
