Mr Willetts
We are absolutely committed to ensuring that such loans are taken up. We are very much looking forward to ensuring that they help to spread training opportunities for adult learning, to which we have a clear commitment.
Mr John Leech (Manchester, Withington) (LD)
I know that my right hon. Friend is aware of the concern about the future of northern museums, including the Museum of Science and Industry. Will BIS Ministers discuss with colleagues in the Department for Culture, Media and Sport how best we can protect the future of our science museums, which are so important in encouraging young people into careers in science?
Mr Willetts
We absolutely understand the importance of science museums and the communication work that they undertake, and of course we recognise their significant role.
