Administrative County Of Kent Endowed Charities

Excerpt from Administrative County of Kent Endowed Charities (Elementary Education): Report Made to the Board of Education in the Result of an Inquiry Into Endowments Subject to the Provisions of the Charitable Trusts Acts, 1853 to 1894, and Appropriated in Whole, or in Part to Purposes of Elementary Education in the Administrative Countr This Report has been prepared at the request of the Kent County Council, under the Charities Inquiries (Expenses) Act, 1892, which enables the County Council of any County to pay or contribute towards the expenses of inquiries into charities applicable within their area. This Report was prepared primarily for the purpose of furnishing such information as is necessary for the consideration of questions arising under s. 13 of the Education Act, 1902, in the case of Charitable Endowments which are held or applied for purposes of elementary education, or in connection with elementary schools, for which the Kent County Council is the Local Education Authority. The Report is of a summary and special character, and is based on a collation of the documentary evidence available in each case. Information on points not material for the purposes of s. 13 of the Education Act, 1902, is given only in a condensed form. As the operation of that section is confined to endowments from which income is derived, no information has generally been given as to the trusts on which school sites yielding no income are held, except in cases in which such information is important for the consideration of some income-yielding endowment. Subject to these limitations, the Report is intended to include all endowments which are held or applied for purposes of elementary education, or the benefits of which are confined to children who are, or have been, in attendance at public elementary schools. The Board do not exercise jurisdiction over charitable endowments until the Charity Commissioners have determined, under the Board of Education Act, 1899, and the Board of Education (Powers) Orders in Council, 1900 to 1902, what part (if any) of the Endowment is held for or ought to be applied to educational purposes. A few endowments are included in this Report, which have not yet been so determined. The Report is confined to matters of fact, and all expressions of opinion and legal inferences have been excluded.
