(a)to compliance with the prescribed requirements with respect—
(i)to the removal and reinterment of any human remains, and
(ii)to the disposal of monuments and fixtures and furnishings; and
(b)to such provisions as may be prescribed for prohibiting or restricting the use of the land, either absolutely or until the prescribed consent has been obtained, so long as any church or other building used or formerly used for religious worship, or any part of it, remains on the land.
