HC Deb 30 November 1978 vol 959 c367W
Mr. Faulds

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland whether he remains satisfied that reliable documentary proof of earlier ownership exists that entitled him to indemnify for £1.12 million the two antique bronzes currently on anonymous loan to the Royal Scottish museum, in view of recent claims made in Italy as to their provenance.

Mr. McElhone:

The bronzes were accepted in good faith by the Royal Scottish museum from a reputable lender whose ownership had not been questioned, and an indemnity was properly given in the normal way. I have no reason to change my view as to the appropriateness of the indemnity.
