and France, and the work of the International Commission for Holocaust 
Insurance Claims (ICHEIC).
    The Department will host meetings at the Department of State (Harry 
S. Truman Building) on April 15 and 16 to hear the views of 
individuals, non-governmental agencies and firms on these issues. The 
sessions on looted art and immovable property will be a follow-up to 
the March 2 meetings on those subjects.
