Written Question

National Gallery

Monday 9th February 2015

Asked by: Baroness Quin (Labour - Life peer)

Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what discussions they have had with the Director of the National Gallery about the transfer of Gallery employees to a private company.

Answered by Lord Gardiner of Kimble

The Department was informed of the National Gallery's proposal to outsource visitor services and security in July 2014. The National Gallery operates at arm's length from the Department, and as such has responsibility for its own staffing and service arrangements.
