Proceeding contribution from Elfyn Llwyd (Plaid Cymru) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 10 March 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Repatriation of Historical Objects.


Repatriation of Historical Objects

I congratulate my hon. Friend on securing this important debate. We talk about the Elgin marbles and so on, but an artefact from north Wales—a famous early Welsh gold cape—is in the British Museum and will not be released back to Wales. Such artefacts are part of our collective national memory. They are important, and should be returned.
