2B.—(1) Subject to subsection (2) and to sections 2C and 2H, each governor shall hold office for a period of 4 years from the termination of the period of office of his predecessor.

(2) A governor elected to succeed a governor who has died or otherwise vacated office before the end of his term of office shall hold office only during the unexpired portion of the term of office of the governor whom he succeeds.

Resignations etc

2C.—(1) Any governor shall be deemed to have vacated office as governor on ceasing to be a member of the Council which elected him: provided that if on the occasion of an ordinary election of councillors he demits office as a councillor and is re-elected he shall not be deemed to have vacated office as governor on so demitting office.

(2) Any governor who intimates in writing his resignation of office, or who has had his estate sequestrated or has made a trust deed for creditors or who becomes incapacitated to act, or who for the period of one year and without reasonable cause fails to attend any meeting of the governing body, shall be held to have vacated office.

The intimation shall request the Council concerned to elect a successor within three months of its receipt.

(3) If the Council entitled to elect a governor fails to do so within the said period of three months, it shall be in the power of the governing body to appoint a successor provided that the person appointed shall be a person eligible to be elected by the said Council.

Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order makes a Scheme for the transfer of interests in educational endowments from Strathclyde Regional Council and the district councils within Strathclyde Region to the new unitary councils established under the Local Government etc. (Scotland) Act 1994.
The transfer takes effect on 1st April 1996, the day when the new unitary councils take up their functions and the existing regional and district councils cease to exist.
Educational endowments are defined in section 122 of the Education (Scotland) Act 1980. Essentially they are property, heritable or moveable, dedicated to charitable educational purposes. Regional councils as education authorities are most likely to have an interest in them but district councils may also have such an interest.
Paragraph 3 of the Scheme, with Schedule 1, provides for the transfer of specific educational endowments, and powers with respect to such endowments, from Strathclyde Regional Council to appropriate new councils.
Paragraph 4 makes general provision for transfer of any interests in educational endowments, vested in Strathclyde Regional Council or its office-holders or nominees, which may not have been caught by the specific provisions of paragraph 3. The general provision is, however, subject also to paragraph 6 and to any specific amendments of governing instruments by Schedules 2 and 3. Paragraph 4 transfers interests to the council (or their office-holders or nominees) for the area where the educational establishment to which the endowment relates is situated, or where it does not relate to a particular establishment the council for the area in which the beneficiaries reside or with which they are required to have a connection. Where these rules do not apply or do not indicate a single council, the interest is transferred to the council for the area with which the endowment is most closely connected.
Paragraph 5 makes general provision for transfer of any interests in educational endowments of the district councils (or their office-holders or nominees) to the new councils which take over responsibility from their areas. Again this is subject to Schedules 2 and 3.
Paragraph 6 with Schedule 2 provides for transfer of Strathclyde Regional Council’s interests in the Dunbartonshire Educational Trust. In place of Strathclyde Regional Council a new governing body is constituted, which is a Joint Board of Argyll and Bute, East Dunbartonshire, West Dunbartonshire and North Lanarkshire Councils. The endowments comprised in the Dunbartonshire Educational Trust and relevant powers and rights are transferred to the new governing body. The endowment of the McAulay Bequest and relevant powers are also transferred to the new governing body.
Paragraph 7 with Schedule 3 provides for amendments of governing instruments of educational endowments consequential on local government reorganisation and on the provisions of the Scheme.
Paragraph 8 makes consequential provision for references in governing instruments of educational endowments to local authorities or persons in whom they were formerly vested to be construed as references to the Councils or persons to whom they are transferred under the Scheme.
Copies of governing instruments specifically referred to in this Order are available from the Student Awards Agency for Scotland, Gyleview House, 3 Redheughs Rigg, Edinburgh EH12 9HH.
