MLA commits to funding Portable Antiquities Scheme
An independent report published this week has endorsed the MLA’s approach to funding the highly-valued Portable Antiquities Scheme (PAS). MLA contributes the overwhelming portion of funds and has now confirmed an allocation of £1.3 million this year, rising to over £1.4 million in 2010/11. The scheme, established 11 years ago, encourages members of the public to report archaeological finds. It will receive funding as part of the Renaissance in the Regions programme that supports the development of regional museums. The scheme will continue to be managed by the British Museum.

World Heritage for the Nation: Identifying, Protecting and Promoting our World Heritage
The Department for Culture, Media and Sport is seeking to explore the extent to which the UK's current approach to World Heritage supports the interests of the UK Government and those of the Governments of the Crown Dependencies and Overseas Territories in protecting and promoting their cultural and natural heritage; their wider strategic priorities; and their international goals, particularly in relation to UNESCO.

The consultation will also examine the costs and benefits, rights and responsibilities of World Heritage Site status, the balance currently achieved between them, and the implications for the future management, promotion and funding of such sites. The consultation will consider what measures might be taken to clarify and/or strengthen protection for World Heritage Sites and recommend a policy on making future nominations for World Heritage Site status.

Bid to rescue rare 18th Century chandelier from export
Culture Minister, Barbara Follett, has placed a temporary export bar on a rare George I giltwood twelve-light chandelier. This will provide a last chance to raise the money to keep this important chandelier in the United Kingdom. The Minister's ruling follows a recommendation by the Reviewing Committee on the Export of Works of Art and Objects of Cultural Interest, administered by the Museums, Libraries and Archives Council. The Committee recommended that the export decision be deferred on the grounds that the chandelier is of outstanding significance for the study of the history of carved and gilt furniture.

Building a Learning Legacy - Year 2
Building a Learning Legacy (BaLL) is a GEM project, funded by CyMAL. Now in its second year, it aims to provide practical support to museums, galleries and other heritage organisations throughout Wales in order to increase their capacity to deliver high quality learning services. The project focuses on supporting those who may not have dedicated learning teams or who are planning to develop their learning provision. The key elements of BaLL2 are skills-sharing events, the development of local support networks and producing practical, online resources.

Two skills sharing events are being held in January 2009: A Starter Kit Plus and New Ways of Working with Schools.  Each event is being run from 09.30 - 16.00 on three different dates at three different venues.

Mine museum recruits apprentices  
A mining museum and visitor attraction says it plans to start offering apprenticeships, 25 years after it first opened. Big Pit at Blaenavon, Torfaen, is looking at recruiting an electrician and fitter in the meantime. A working pit until 1980, the museum also expects a rise in visitor numbers. Manager Peter Walker said: "We're not looking at hundreds of opportunities but in the coalfield that's left in South Wales it's a good step forward."

Barber shop museum makeover plea  
A museum wants funds to help renovate an iconic former barber shop run by the same man for more than 70 years. Jack Wardell, known as Jack the Barber, who is 92, finally hung up his comb and scissors a year ago. He has donated the premises at Tumble in Carmarthenshire to the Kidwelly Industrial Museum, but the old tin shed needs £3,500 for repairs. Mr Wardell has also offered to give demonstrations if his old shop gets a new lease of life in the museum.
