§ 55. Mr. Beithasked the Minister for the Arts what recent discussions he has had with representatives of museums in the public and private sectors.
§ Mr. LuceI meet representatives of all sectors of the museums world both in London and during my regional visits. Most recently I attended the opening of the Winterhalter exhibition at the national portrait gallery. During November I look forward to visiting the national history museum's geological museum, and to seeing a number of museum developments outside London.
