Normal provision. The Scheme for the church at its inauguration stated the “normal provision”. This was the only formal statement until the Constitution that replaced it following the 5-yearly Review of the LEP in 1992. Notice that the statement is very brief. It does not exclude other practices, but it does not elaborate on when they might or might not be appropriate. The normal provision shall be a service of thanksgiving, or of dedication where appropriate followed by Baptism for those who come to faith in Xxxxxx and have not been baptised previously. Confirmation will be available for those who have been baptised previously, as also for the newly baptised. The Scheme is now formally superseded by the newer Constitution and other documents, and the statement above has not been included in any of them. As you will see, the “new” Constitution does not make any statement about “normal provision”. This means that what is now our “custom and practice” is not written down anywhere. But this document itself is now setting out in writing what we do, and will therefore probably assume an authority of its own!
Normal provision. If a Participant ceases to be in Employment his Options will, unless otherwise provided in the Rules, lapse on the date he so ceases.
Normal provision. If a Participant ceases to be in Employment he will, subject to Rule 5.2, Rule 5.3 and Rule 5.4, cease to be entitled to exercise any Option on the day he so ceases.
