§ 36. Mr. Freudasked the Minister for the Arts what political affiliations he took into account when appointing the trustees of the Merseyside museums and galleries.
§ Mr. LuceI have appointed the trustees of the Merseyside museums and galleries on the basis of personal suitability and experience for the task. Two of the new trustees happen currently to be Merseyside county councillors, and will relinquish that office at abolition on 1 April. They have been particularly closely involved with work on the museums and galleries.
