Clause 3, page 4, line 39, at end insert: ("Provided also that, where any bursary or scholarship which, in pursuance of a deed of declaration under this section is tenable at a Scottish University, is awarded to a student of theology preparing for the ministry of the United Free Church of Scotland (Continuing), any period not exceeding one year during such student's tenure of the bursary or scholarship which he may spend as a student in the College of the United Free Church of Scotland (Continuing) shall, for the purposes of the said deed of declaration, be deemed to be spent at the University.")

LORD STRATHCONA AND MOUNT ROYAL

My Lords, I beg to move that this House agree with the Commons in these Amendments, which are purely drafting. They are designed to make it clear that deeds of declaration (under the clause making bursaries connected with the former United Free Church colleges tenable at the University) are to be effective notwithstanding anything which may be contained in any scheme under the Educational Endowments (Scotland) Act, 1882, or in any order under the Churches (Scotland) Act, 1905, affecting any such bursary. The clause in the form in which it was sent to the Commons dealt in this way with deeds of foundation and schemes made by the Court, and it is now desirable to put schemes or orders under the Acts of 1882 and 1905 on the same footing. I hope, therefore, that your Lordships will see your way to agree with the Amendments.

Moved, That this House doth agree with the Commons in the said Amendments.—(Lord Strathcona and Mount Royal.)

On Question, Motion agreed to.
