We, the Church Commissioners for England, in exercise of the powers under section 65 of the Mission and Pastoral Measure 2011, make the following Order:

## 1 Citation, commencement and interpretation {#article-1}

(1) This Order may be cited as the Payments to the Churches Conservation Trust Order 2014 and comes into force on 1st April 2015.
(2) In this Order, “the 2011 Measure” means the Mission and Pastoral Measure 2011.

## 2 Funding period {#article-2}

The funding period for the purposes of Part 6 of the 2011 Measure is the period beginning with 1st April 2015 and ending with 31st March 2018.

## 3 Amount of payment {#article-3}

(1) The total amount to be paid by the Commissioners to the Churches Conservation Trust in respect of the funding period specified in article 2, by way of grants under section 57(19) of the 2011 Measure and moneys allocated under section 64(1) of that Measure, is—
(a) £4,065,000, and
(b) such additional amounts as are determined under paragraph (2).
(2) Where the Commissioners’ one-third share of the proceeds and premiums received during 2015, 2016 or 2017 exceeds £500,000, there is to be an additional amount for the purposes of paragraph (1)(b) equivalent to the excess.
(3) But the total of the payments under paragraph (1)(b) must not exceed £150,000; and paragraph (2) accordingly has effect subject to this paragraph.
(4) In sub-paragraph (2)—
(a) the reference to the proceeds and premiums received during a calendar year is a reference to the net proceeds and net premiums referred to in section 64 of the 2011 Measure that are received during that calendar year, and
(b) the reference to the Commissioners’ one-third share of those proceeds and premiums is a reference to the moneys comprised in the remaining one-third as referred to in that section.

## 4 Payments on account {#article-4}

A payment on account of the sum specified in article 3(1)(a), or of an additional amount referred to in article 3(1)(b), may be made only if the Church Commissioners are satisfied—
(a) that the amount of the payment is a portion of a sum of money needed by the Churches Conservation Trust, and
(b) that the balance of that sum will be paid to the Trust out of moneys provided by Parliament.
