520 _aThe Inland Revenue has told owners of tax-exempt works of art that they must provide open access for public viewing on up to 25 set days each year. The owners have been able to defer paying inheritance tax on the art works provided the works are kept in good condition, in the UK, and the public is allowed access. However normally access is by appointment, often requiring proof of identity and payment of an administration charge. Five owners are planning a legal challenge to the decision.
