HC Deb 24 April 1970 vol 800 c170W
Mr. R. C. Mitchell

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what increase there has been in the approximate total value of indemnities given to owners for total loss of objects loaned to the Victoria and Albert Museum since the publication of the estimates, as a result of the holding of temporary exhibitions.

Miss Jennie Lee:

Yes. The exhibitions " Drawings from the Teyler Museum, Haarlem " and the " Treasures from Althorp " temporarily increase the published liability by approximately £2 million.
