Notes to Editors
The National Maritime Museum’s mission is to illustrate the importance of the sea, ships, time and stars, and their relationship with people. Its responsibilities are safeguarding and enhancing its assets which are the collections, expertise in the collections and subject area and the buildings. The Museum seeks to spread the benefits of those assets by maximising access and interpretation for users, satisfying stakeholders and ensuring effective organisation and sound financial management. Trustees of the National Maritime Museum are not remunerated.
Appointments are made on merit and political activity plays no part in the selection process. However, in accordance with the original Nolan recommendations, there is a requirement for political activity in the past 5 years (if any declared) to be made public. Mr Macdonald has declared no political activity.
