HC Deb 22 July 1912 vol 41 cc826-7W
Mr. GRANT

asked the President of the Board of Education whether, in considering the disposal of the casts in the Victoria and Albert Museum, the desirability of placing a selection of them in the South Court of the Museum amongst corresponding original works will be kept in view?

Mr. PEASE

The South Court of the Museum is devoted to the collections of the Department of Metalwork, and in the consideration of the questions regarding the disposal of casts, to which reference was made in the answer to the hon. Member's question of the 5th July last, no alteration in the arrangement of those collections is at present involved.

Mr. GRANT

asked the President of the Board of Education whether, besides placing the designs for various materials in proximity to the objects of cognate material in the galleries of the Victoria and Albert Museum, he will now cause the remaining portion not go used to be transferred to the departmental students' rooms?

Mr. PEASE

The answer is in the negative.
