HC Deb 18 November 1958 vol 595 cc121-2W
71. Mr. K. Robinson

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what developments and improvements the Trustees of the British Museum have reported to him their wish to carry out when finance becomes available; and what order of priority has been assigned to these projects.

Mr. Amory

I understand that the Trustees' first requirements are broadly for more accommodation, more staff for existing services, and more money for purchases and for printing. The Trustees regard all these as urgent requirements, the exact priorities at any time depending on the current demand and circumstances.
