I understand that some of the lesser items in the collection referred to by the Deputy were sold at a public auction held in 2000, while the more important heritage items were retained for future display. These valuable items, a catalogue of which is retained by my Department, have been held in secure storage and it is planned that they will be subject to display in due course in the context of the restoration works being carried out at the location referred to by the Deputy.
