<p>Museums and galleries in the UK operate independently of Her Majesty’s Government.
Decisions relating to their collections are a matter for the trustees of each museum.</p><p>Some
national museums are prevented by law from disposing of objects in their collections
unless, broadly, they are duplicates or unfit for retention. The two exceptions to
this are when the objects are human remains that are less than 1,000 years old, and
objects that were spoliated during the Nazi era. Her Majesty’s Government has no plans
to change this law.</p><p> </p>
