§ 10. Mr. Frank R. Whiteasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science whether he will assist local museums and galleries by facilitating the loan of suitable objects to them from the national collections.
§ Mr. Hugh JenkinsI have always strongly supported the loan of objects from the national collections to local museums and galleries and the number of objects on such loan has increased to about 4,000. Complex issues of security are being given consideration with a view to further increasing the number of objects on loan.
