The British Museum Act 1963 does not permit the Trustees to dispose of any artefacts (save in a small number of special circumstances), even following reasonable repatriation requests. The Trustees should be permitted by law to act with greater freedom and flexibility in recognising the educational and historical value and cultural enrichment of outstanding artefacts, such as the Parthenon sculptures and Benin Bronzes, and in returning them to their place of origin.
