Description
First published in 1921, this handbook has sold well over a million copies and has become the standard guide for churchwardens and members of PCCs. It is indispensable for all who wish to tread a clear path through the sometimes complex legislation and know the rules and extent of their responsibility as elected Church officers.
Â
This new edition has been fully revised to take into account several new developments, including
Â
* Changes in ecclesiastical law including:Â Â Â Â - the revision of the Pastoral Measure 1983
    - the Dioceses' Pastoral and Mission Measure 2008, the   new power to make Bishop's Mission Orders
    - the introduction of Clergy Terms of Service
* The Legal Advisory Commission's recommendations on PCCs powers and duties
* health and safety issues
Â
Flowcharts and checklists add to the usefulness of this volume, as do photocopiable legal forms and notices for practical purposes in parishes.
