		The criterion adopted for assessing the public interest of archaeological remains might vary according to whether it is a question of the preservation of such property, or of the excavator's or finder's obligation to declare his discoveries.
		When archaeological objects have been acquired by museums, adequate details allowing them to be identified and indicating the manner of their acquisition should be published as soon as possible.
		Excavation services and museums should lend one another assistance in order to ensure or facilitate the recovery of objects derived from clandestine excavations or theft, and of all objects exported in infringement of the legislation of the country of origin.

		If further archaeological work is necessary this can be secured, either by the use of a planning condition, or by a legal agreement under section 106 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990.

	Recommendation on International Principles Applicable to Archaeological Excavations: UNESCO
		(a) The archaeological service should, so far as possible, be a central State administration-or at any rate an organization provided by law with the necessary means for carrying out any emergency measures that may be required.
		On important archaeological sites, a small exhibit of an educational nature-possibly a museum-should be set up to convey to visitors the interest of the archaeological remains.
		When a concession is granted to a foreign mission, the representative of the conceding State-if such be appointed-should, as far as possible, also be an archaeologist capable of helping the mission and collaborating with it.
