Paragraph 9 I1

A scheme shall provide for transferring to the bishop of a diocese, or to the diocesan board of patronage thereof, any right of patronage of a benefice which by virtue of the scheme is to become a benefice in that diocese, being a right which immediately before the commencement of the scheme was vested in the bishop, or the diocesan board of patronage, of another diocese affected by the scheme.

A scheme may also provide for appointing a new person or the holder of an existing office to replace any person who holds office in a diocese or cathedral and who is a registered patron in relation to such a benefice or one of a number of such patrons or who is a trustee of such a right of patronage or a member of a corporate body holding such a right.
