"Recently, the Dutch restitution policy was heavily criticized for the inclusion of the public interest in the applicable substantive assessment framework. In this lecture, this critique will be the main focus of attention after a short introduction on the task of the Dutch restitution committee. The critique will be analysed, and discussed using a comparative perspective."
