HC Deb 29 July 1924 vol 176 c1894
53. Mr. A. M. SAMUEL

asked the Financial Secretary to the Treasury whether he will request the trustees of the Sir John Soane Museum, in Lincoln's Inn Fields, to allow a suitable committee from the Board of Education, or the Victoria and Albert Museum, to confer with them with a view to making the Soane Museum more accessible to the public in certain months of the year, and to re-arranging the exhibits so that they can be more easily seen and studied by visitors?

Mr. GRAHAM

I will bring the hon. Member's suggestion to the notice of the trustees; but as I understand that the trustees will not be meeting again for several months, it may be some time before they are able to give the matter consideration.

Mr. SAMUEL

I beg to give notice that on a suitable occasion I shall draw attention to the administration of this Museum.
