Charities (Corporation of the Hall of Arts and Sciences) Order 1999

APPENDIX SCHEME FOR THE ALTERATION OF PROVISIONS GOVERNING THE CHARITY KNOWN AS THE CORPORATION OF THE HALL OF ARTS AND SCIENCES SITUATE IN GREATER LONDON

Whereas the Charity known as The Corporation of the Hall of Arts and Sciences (“the Corporation”) is now regulated by:

(1) a Royal Charter dated 8th April 1866 and Supplemental Charters dated 25th October 1887 and 7th December 1928 (“the Charters”);

(2) The Royal Albert Hall Acts 1876 to 1966 (“the Acts”)(1); and

(3) The British Museum (Transitional Provisions) Order 1965:

And whereas the Trustees of the Corporation consider that they are no longer able to further the purposes of the Corporation in the manner contemplated by the Charters and the Acts:

And whereas the Trustees of the Corporation have on behalf of the Corporation made application to the Charity Commissioners for a Scheme for the administration thereof:

And whereas it appears to the Charity Commissioners that a Scheme should be established for the administration of the Corporation but that it is necessary for the Scheme to make provision which goes beyond the powers exercisable by them apart from section 17 of the Charities Act 1993:

And whereas in pursuance of section 20 of the Charities Act 1993 public notice of the Charity Commissioners' proposals for this Scheme has been given and no representations have been received in respect thereof:

Now, therefore, the Charity Commissioners for England and Wales (“the Commissioners”) in pursuance of section 17(1) of the Charities Act 1993 hereby settle the following Scheme:
