§ Mr. DalyellTo ask the Minister for the Arts if, in the light of worldwide representations concerned with the taxonomic, palaeontological and scientific work of the natural history museum, he will review funding plans for the museum.
§ Mr. RentonMy predecessor took full account of the natural history museum's corporate plan, and the worldwide representations received in the past six months, when he made his funding announcement on 9 November. The museum has now been asked to prepare a further corporate plan, covering the period to 31 March 1995: this will be the subject of discussion with my officials when it is submitted next spring.
