§ Mr. Robert Cookeasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he will specify, together with their respective valuations, the drawings from the Gathorne-Hardy collection which have been accepted in satisfaction of estate duty.
§ Mr. Denzil DaviesThe hon. Gentleman will remember that I announced the acceptance in lieu of estate duty of a drawing by Mantegna, "St. James led to Martyrdom", on 7th November 1975. The cost to the National Land Fund was £56,000. Negotiations are currently in progress on an offer of a further drawing of the "Head of a Woman" by Vittore Carpaccio.
