Decision:

Agreed

RESOLVED that the new Collections and Development Policy be formally adopted by Exeter City Council.

As set out in the report.

 

 

Minutes:

The Museums Manager and Cultural Lead presented the report which set out the requirement to approve a new Collections Development Policy for the Royal Albert Memorial Museum and Art Gallery to cover the years 2020 to 2025. It was explained that, due to the Covid-19 pandemic and lockdown, the policy had not undergone the customary period of consultation with professional colleagues and may be subject to later amendment. Future amendment might also cover any necessary revisions arising from Arts Council England’s current work to produce new guidelines for museums on restitution and repatriation.

 

RESOLVED that the new Collections and Development Policy be formally adopted by Exeter City Council.
