HC Deb 16 December 1912 vol 45 c1119W
Mr. BRIDGEMAN

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department the amount of Welsh Church glebe, and Welsh Church glebe now vested in the Ecclesiastical Commissioners and the governors of Queen Anne's Bounty, respectively, and alienated to secular objects under the Bill.

Mr. McKENNA

The total value of glebe alienated under the Bill amounts to £23,463 per annum. The amount of ancient glebe is £17,003 a year. In addition to this, there is also glebe of the value of £1,591 a year, derived from grants made by the governors of Queen Anne's Bounty out of their Parliamentary Grants Fund, and £4,869 out of their Royal Bounty Fund. It does not appear that any glebe vested in the Ecclesiastical Commissioners will be alienated under the provisions of the Bill.
