Bounty of Queen Anne
Bounty of Queen Anne 〈英〉安妮女王基金会 依据皇家特许状成立的基金会，并由1703年的一项制定法正式确立。所有属于国王所得的初年圣俸〔first-fruit〕和什一税〔tenths〕均交给基金管理会〔Governor〕的受托人管理，建立基金会，目的在于增加贫困教士的收入。依据该基金会的原则，通过从初年圣俸和什一税的财政收入中拨款增加贫困教士的收入，相应地也免除这些教士收取初年圣俸和什一税的义务。每一教区〔diocese〕的主教都要负责调查本教区内年收入不足50英镑的教士的情况，并向财政署如实报告。对该基金会的制度，后来的制定法特别是1838年《安妮女王基金会法》〔Queen Anne’s Bounty Act〕作了进一步规定。1776年《教士住宅维修法》〔Clergy Residences Repair Act〕，也即通称的《吉尔伯特法案》〔Gilbert’s Act〕，授权基金会理事可以贷出4%的款项用于维修堂区牧师寓所〔parsonage〕等，但要以教会产业作抵押。依据1925年《什一税法》〔Tithe Act〕，安妮女王基金会又获得了收取所有什一税租费〔tithe rentcharge〕并发放给神职人员的权力，但1936年《什一税法》又将什一税租费废除了。依据1947年《英格兰国教委员会法》〔Church Commissioners Measure〕，安妮女王基金会与宗教事务委员会〔Ecclesiastical Commissioners〕合并，更名为英格兰国教委员会〔Church Commissioners〕。
