<p>There are currently four objects from the Parliamentary Art Collection on loan
outside the Parliamentary Estate.<br><br>The House of Commons and the House of Lords
are actively committed to giving access to the Parliamentary Art Collection to as
wide an audience as possible.<br><br>Loan requests are welcomed which will broaden
access to the Collection and we are actively developing professional partnerships
with other institutions around the UK who are organising exhibitions. In addition
to this the Works of Art Committees of both Houses are working hard to raise the profile
of the Parliamentary Art Collection and building to increase the number of loans outside
the Parliamentary Estate.<br><br>The number of loans out changes from time to time
as works are usually loaned for temporary exhibition.<br><br>As the Works of Art Committees
have only recently reformed following the election we anticipate that the number of
loans out may increase as pending loan requests are considered.</p>
