Motion text

That this House notes the recommencing of online sales to Northern Ireland residents by the Natural History Museum in London following a series of Parliamentary Questions to, and correspondence with, the Department for Culture Media and Sport; recognises that sales had stopped as a result of the NI Protocol and Windsor Agreement arrangements; is concerned that the Science Museum Group and the Victoria and Albert Museum have still not recommenced sales to Northern Ireland; and calls for an intensification of discussions between Departmental officials and the Museums in order that Northern Ireland residents are able to place orders with all these prestigious Museums, as are other residents in the rest of the UK.
