21. In Appendix I, section 4–
(a)in paragraph 2 of the notes insert at the end–
“2—(d) he is not disqualified as referred to in paragraph 3 of these Notes.”
(b)After paragraph 2 insert as a new paragraph–
“3—(a) A person shall be disqualified from being nominated, chosen or elected or from serving as a churchwarden, a member of a parochial church council, a district church council or any synod under these rules 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;
(b)A person shall also be disqualified from being nominated, chosen or elected from serving as a churchwarden or member of a parochial church council if he has been so disqualified from holding office under section 10(6) of the Incumbent (Vacation of Benefice) Measure 1997.”and renumber paragraphs 3 and 4 as 4 and 5.
