Proceeding contribution from David Clelland (Labour) in the House of Commons on Friday, 25 September 2009. It occurred during Grand Committee proceedings (HC) on Regional Economy (Tackling the Recession).
Regional Economy (Tackling the Recession)
I have followed the debate on the Lindisfarne gospels, and I also have an interest in Greece, where I take many holidays. Greece is asking for the Elgin marbles back. I wonder whether the Minister might want to ask the Foreign Secretary to suggest in the United Nations that all artefacts belonging to areas that it has designated international heritage areas should be returned. That would get the Lindisfarne gospels back here, would it not?
