Details of cultural objects for which a decision on the export licence was deferred are published in the annual report of the Reviewing Committee on the Export of Works of Art and Objects of Cultural Interest.

Reports for the years 2016 -17 and 2017-2018 are available on the website of Arts Council England.

The reports for 2018-19 and 2019-20 will be published shortly.
