APPENDIX
SCHEME FOR THE ALTERATION OF PROVISIONS GOVERNING THE CHARITY CALLED THE MOST HONOURABLE AND LOYAL SOCIETY OF ANCIENT BRITONS (KNOWN AS ST. DAVID'S SCHOOL) SITUATE IN SURREY

Whereas the Charity called the Most Honourable and Loyal Society of Ancient Britons (known as St. David's School) for the benefit of educating and training as apprentices children whose father or mother shall have been born within the principality of Wales, the county of Monmouth, or the parishes of Oswestry, Sellatyn and Llanymynech in the county of Salop, is now regulated by the Act of 14th May 1846[3] ("the Act") incorporating the Members of the Most Honourable and Loyal Society of Ancient Britons formerly called the Welsh Charity School;

And whereas it is sought to modernise the objects and powers of the Charity;

And whereas the trustees of the Charity have on behalf of the charity 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 alteration of the provisions governing the Charity 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 in pursuance of section 17(1) of the Charities Act 1993 hereby settle the following Scheme:

SCHEME

Amendments
    2.Section 16 of the Act (power of amendment by way of Laws, Rules and Regulations subject to proviso) shall have effect as if the words "and that the benefits of the said Charity shall be limited to children whose father or mother shall have been born within the principality of Wales, the county of Monmouth, or the parishes of Oswestry, Sellatyn, and Llanymynech, in the county of Salop" were removed and the following words substituted therein:

Questions under the Scheme
4.Any question as to the construction of this Scheme or as to the regularity or the validity of any acts done or about to be done under this Scheme may be determined by the Charity Commissioners upon such application made to them for the purpose as they think sufficient.

Sealed by Order of the Commissioners this 8th day of November 2000.

L.S.

EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Order)

This Order gives effect to a Scheme sealed by the Charity Commissioners for England and Wales to amend the objects and provide for the administration of the Charity commonly known as the "St. David's School". The Charity is currently governed by an Act incorporating the Members of the Most Honourable and Loyal Society of Ancient Britons of 14th May 1846.

The Scheme in the Order repeals those parts of the 1846 Act which are no longer relevant and modernises the objects of the Charity facilitating amendment to the administrative arrangements by Laws, Rules and Regulations and confers a power to take out indemnity insurance.
