Article 2 of the Order adds employment by the Churches Conservation Trust to those listed in that Schedule. The Redundant Churches Fund was established by [Pastoral Measure 1983 (No. 1)](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukcm/1983/1) with power to appoint staff.

It receives grant-in-aid from the Department for Culture, Media and Sport.

Article 3 (a) of the Order adds to those listed in that Schedule the office of member of the Parole Board. The Chairman of the Parole Board is also a member of that body, and the separate listing of that office is accordingly removed from that Schedule by article 3(b) of the Order. Provision for the appointment of the members of the Parole Board is made by section 149 of, and Schedule 10 to, the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act [1994 (c. 33)](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1994/33).
