HC Deb 23 November 1987 vol 123 c62W
100. Mr. Sedgemore

To ask the Minister for the Arts what steps he will take to assist local authority museums in London to further their work in and with their communities.

Mr. Luce

Responsibility for local authority museums in London falls to the appropriate borough council. Central Government assistance is channelled through the rates support grant and through the Museums and Galleries Commission and the London Museum Service, a division of the area museum service for south-eastern England.
