Procedure for Measures to have effect in the Bailiwick 1 The procedure for the purposes of Article 7 is as follows—
(a) The Bishop shall refer the specified Measure to the Deanery Synod of the Deanery of Guernsey (“Deanery Synod”) for a decision as to whether it should apply to the Bailiwick;
(b) The Deanery Synod shall indicate whether it wishes the specified Measure to apply in the Bailiwick;
(c) Where the Deanery Synod indicates that it wishes the specified Measure to apply in the Bailiwick, the Bishop shall draft a Scheme applying the specified Measure;
(d) The Standing Committee of the Deanery of Guernsey (“the Standing Committee”) and the States of Guernsey Policy & Resources Committee (“the Committee”) shall consider the Scheme and indicate whether it is agreed;
(e) Where the Scheme is agreed by the Standing Committee and the Committee, the Committee shall make an Order setting out that Scheme and any consequential, transitional, etc. provisions; and
(f) The Order shall be laid before a meeting of the States of Deliberation as soon as possible after being made; and if at that meeting the States resolve that the Order be annulled, it shall not come into force but without prejudice to the making of a new Order under this procedure.
2 Any reference to “the Committee” in this Schedule includes any committee of the States of Guernsey (howsoever titled) in which the functions set out above are for the time being vested in accordance with a resolution of the States of Deliberation or by an enactment.

(a) An Order made under paragraph (1)(e) may only come into force on a date on or after the date of the meeting of the States of Deliberation at which it was laid; and
(b) The Scheme applying the Measure shall have effect in accordance with the provisions of the Order made under paragraph (1)(e).
