The Church Representation Rules (Amendment) Resolution 1999

22.  In Appendix I, section 6–

(a) after the words “I, the above named ... ... ... ... hereby” insert the words “declare that I am not subject to any disqualification referred to in the Notes on this form and”; and

(b) at the end of the form insert–

“Disqualifications from being nominated (rule 46A)

A person is disqualified from being nominated for membership of any Synod if he is disqualified from being a charity trustee under section 72(1) of the Charities Act 1993 and the disqualification is not for the time being subject to a general waiver by the Charity Commissioners under subsection (4) of that section or to a waiver by them under that subsection in respect of all ecclesiastical charities established for purposes relating to the parish concerned.

In this paragraph “ecclesiastical charity” has the same meaning as that assigned to that expression in the Local Government Act 1894.”
