   Comments: Introduction of ARR for works by deceased artists would be a calamity not only for most picture dealers but throughout the UK antique trade.

   Comments: Whwe a deal is done between an artist and dealer/buyer for an item/product that is that and what the dealer/buyer does with the item/product thereafter is no concern of the artist and certainly no concern of relatives of the artist who had no involvement with the creation or sale of the item/product. It is already too expensive buying items at auction with fees now averaging 18 - 20%, plus online bidding fees, packing and postage costs etc without ARR added in as well!!

   Comments: The artist sets his price and the customer buys it. That should be the end of the artists involvement with that work of art. I totally disagree with this new ruling.

   Comments: Another quango group making monies from others hard work. either raise ot to £50k for Damien Hirst or scrap it altogether - as this is of no benefit to artists, dealers, buyers and sellers. A tax for a quango

    Comments: My business is being hugely undermined by this oddly selective and grossly unfair tax. Please listen to your small businesses and apply some common sense to your consideration of this issue.

    Comments: Vat rate should also be reduced under the margin scheme to encourage British Antique Dealers.

    Comments: It is a confidence trick; the bloodsuckers charge the levy but neither they nor the auctioneers will guarantee that the artwork is genuine. Big incentive for forgers, enormous conflict of interest.

    Comments: It beggars belief that this well-meaning but destructive tax should be introduced in the UK with a lower exemption threshold than the Directive permits. Another unfortunate example of our civil servants gold-plating EU legislation to the detriment of business in the UK.

    Comments: I agree with this petition and all the points it raises. In addition its unintended consequences are that it will hinder the career of younger artists as dealers will disinclined to take a risk with their work. Payment is due even when there is a loss on the sale which is often the case in this recession. That cannot be what was intended.

    Comments: What a travesty! Even if one believes living artists are due a resale commission, certainly not one that didn't even execute the work! This is undue pressure on the antique market and should be overturned immediately! !
