  • Ongoing overheads that should be part of your day-to-day expenditure, including building maintenance
  • Grants to meet statutory obligations
  • Purchase of land and buildings
  • Development of new museums
  • Purchase of objects for museum collections
  • Work funded through insurance claims
  • Projects on which work (other than preliminary design or development work) has already started or where goods have been ordered before the application is approved
  • Museums Galleries Scotland training courses unless part of a larger project
