Meer over het boek

A newly revised and updated edition of the authoritative handbook for both newly elected and existing churchwardens. First published in 1921, this handbook has sold 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 extent of their responsibility as elected Church officers. This new edition has undergone a full update to include: - The complete revision of the Church Representation Rules relating to parishes - The statutory list of works to churches and churchyards which may be undertaken without a faculty or other permission - Amendments to the Parochial Church Councils (Powers) Measure 1956, the Churchwardens Measure 2001 and other legislation Flowcharts and checklists add to the usefulness of this volume, as do the legal forms and notices relating to parishes.
