HC Deb 30 March 1981 vol 2 cc9-10W
25. Mr. Richard Shepherd

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he is yet in a position to make a statement on the future of the Victoria and Albert museum slide service.

Mr. Channon

I announced on 18 March, in reply to my hon. Friend the Member for Ilford, North (Mr. Bendall) that I have asked the Standing Commission on Museums and Galleries to take responsibility for the slide service as from this Wednesday. The commission will let me know in due course if it decides that other arrangements should he considered for the future management of the service.
