Written statement made by Earl of Courtown (Conservative) on Thursday, 26 May 2016 in the House of Lords, on behalf of the Department for Culture, Media and Sport.
Correction to Lords Oral Question on Bowes Museum and Durham County Council
During oral questions on Monday 25 April I said that the Bowes Museum and Durham County Council split the profits of a recent Yves Saint Laurent exhibition. I should have said that the Bowes Museum and Durham County Council are in the process of setting up a fund to enable the museum to pay for major exhibitions, such as Yves Saint Laurent, in the future. The intention is that any surplus generated by future exhibitions will be recycled into the fund to support further exhibitions. This is an innovative way for the Local Authority to continue to support the Bowes Museum.
