times. It might be helpful if I list these hous separately:

Tednesday of the week.

The display rooms are open on Tednesday w Zasuriey mounings.

The Intermediate Troduction Services its are oren 7 days a week,

from Monday to Sunday, including Friday up to 7 p.m.

It is true that most of these centres are not staffed by full-time

staff, boose we intend to maximise the ace : our existing resources.

In additin, the public and the teachers can also organise visits by

appointments. So far the visits have been lone by appoint ents and not

in large numbers. However, e re quite prepared to respond to more

requests for visits and we might be able to reek ditial staff, if

the cases justify, to extend the opening hours if necessary.
