Wedgwood Museum's collection can be sold to pay creditors, judge rules | Third Sector

Wedgwood Museum's collection can be sold to pay creditors, judge rules | Third Sector: A High Court judge has ruled that the Wedgwood Museum’s collection can be sold to pay off creditors, after a �134m pensions deficit forced the Wedgwood Museum Trust to go into administration.

The trust, based in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, went into administration last year following the transfer of the pension debt from the collapse of the Waterford Wedgwood pottery firm, which became insolvent in 2009.
