SUBJECT: DEMARCHE DELIVERED REGARDING UNESCO CONVENTION ON 
CULTURAL EXPRESSIONS 
 
REF: SECSTATE 188253 
 
(U) Econoff delivered reftel demarche regarding the UNESCO 
Conventions on Cultural Expressions to Peter Noble, Deputy 
Director for United Nations and Commonwealth Issues at the 
Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (MFAT) and to Bronwyn 
Turley, Policy Advisor for IP Issues at the Ministry of 
Economic Development (MED). Post stressed the concern that 
the Convention contains ambiguous language regarding its 
relationship to other international agreements, including WTO 
agreements. Although there was no immediate response, GNZ has 
in the past expressed similar concerns regarding Article 20 
of the Covention as it affects trade and other treaty rights 
and obligation. Post will inform State of any further 
reaction by MFAT and MED.
