HC Deb 12 May 1978 vol 949 cc627-8W
Mr. Faulds

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment what steps he will take to ensure that the national museums and galleries and other public places under his control will be open in future on Sundays and on public holidays.

Mr. Shore

My right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Education and Science is responsible for the national museums and galleries.

Most of the public places under my control already open on Sundays and public holidays, except for three days at Christmas and New Year's Day.

Arrangements for future May Day holidays are under review.
