I do not see how this amendment is going to work, although with its principle I am in substantial agreement. The Bill as it stands apparently requires a person who contemplates exporting any of the articles mentioned in the definitive section to secure the consent of the Minister before that article is exported. This amendment provides machinery, whereunder certain articles, long before the question of export has ever arisen, may, by Order, be excluded from the operation of the Act. What does the Minister envisage doing? Take the case of a painting. Does he propose to issue a label which can be stuck on the back of the picture stating that, although the picture is over 100 years old, by licence of the Minister for Education under sub-section (2) of Section 2, it is exempt from the general provisions of the Act, and may, therefore, be exported or disposed of freely? That is the first question I should like to have clarified. The second is this: I understood the Minister to say in recommending this amendment that he foresaw that there might be 100 years old documents, pictures and the like which would have no particular value to the nation, and that he, therefore, devised this amendment to meet that situation. I should like to hear from the Minister, however, his views on a somewhat different situation. It is not unknown to us in this country that the descendants of great historical figures in the life of our country have grown poor. They do not choose to seek for charity, or to become a charge upon the public funds. Suppose a foreign collector comes to one of them and says: "There has come down to you by inheritance a document or a picture or a drawing which has a very special value." Let us imagine that the descendant of one of the signatories of the American Declaration of Independence was in this country, and had a contemporary portrait of that man, and that a foreign collector came to him and said: "We are prepared to offer you 50,000 dollars for that picture." The party concerned, well knowing that the picture would be carefully preserved for posterity, would be well looked after and would become a public trust abroad, albeit abroad, saw in that proposal an honourable re-establishment of the family's private fortunes, a deliverance from the necessity to become a charge upon the charity of the community or of his relatives. At this stage, the Minister for Education in pursuit of the purposes of this Bill, intervenes and says: "We will not permit that picture to be exported."
