Incumbents of Benefices Loans Extension Act, 1886, Amendment Act 1887

Amendment of 49.

2. In section one of the principal Act the words “by extending such term for any period not exceeding twenty years from the yearly period next before the date of the resolution to be passed in respect of such benefice, to be accompanied by a corresponding reduction of the amount of the annual instalment of principal and interest,” shall be read and have effect as if the following words had been inserted in lieu thereof; that is to say, “by extending such term for any period not exceeding twenty years, so that by such extension the amount of the annual instalments payable in respect of the loan shall be reduced as from the day of the annual payment due next before the date of the resolution to be passed in respect of such benefice”; and such extension may be granted notwithstanding the original term may have been before extended. Provided that the whole term of the two extensions shall not exceed in any case twenty years. And in the case of any extension of the time for the payment of instalments the term of years for which the possessions of the benefice are mortgaged shall be enlarged to the like extent.
