736 Making of Clogs, Clog-Soles and Clog-Blocks. [Nov., 



the person or persons proposing to carry out the above-men- 

 tioned works, buildings, or improvements, shall apply to the 

 Ministry to order the redemption of the tithe rentcharge. 



Eepresentations have been made to the Ministry that the 

 provisions of this Section are frequently disregarded by the 

 landowners concerned. There may, perhaps, have been some 

 justification for this before the passing of the Tithe Act, 

 1918, when the consideration money for redemption had to 

 be calculated on the basis of 25 years' purchase of the par

 to redeem on equitable terms it is desirable that in all cases to 

 which the Section applies application for redemption should 

 be made forthwith. 



(12) Redemption of Corn Rents. — The provisions relating to 

 tithe rentcharge referred to in the foregoing paragraphs sub-

 redemption under the Tithe Acts, 1836 to 1891. 



(13) Forms. — The following forms will be supplied on

(Form Xo. 157/L.T.). 

 (c) Application for the redemption of corn rents, etc., in such cases (Form 



No. 204/L.T.). 



■(d) Forms of continuation schedule for use in the redemption of tithe 

 rentcharge or of corn rents, etc., in cases where the schedule provided in 

 the form of application is not sufficient to show all the rentcharges 

 proposed to be redeemed (Form Xo. 133/L.T.).
