Parochial Fees Jessica Cook

The Table of Parochial Fees Fees legally belong to the DBF Fee levels increase each year Fees are based on costs of ministry, making the church available, routine administration and lighting PCC / benefice usually handle payments and pass across to the DBF its share at regular intervals

The PCC element PCC fees have been calculated to include a location/building element based on national statistics for the overall costs of repairs and maintenance of church buildings and the number of hours in use. Also included is an element for administration and cost of lighting.

Extras that can be charged Heating Services of a verger Services of an organist, choir or bell-ringers Sheet or recorded music that has to be specially purchased The provision of recorded or taped music The taking of films, video or sound recordings Flowers Special furnishings

Waiving parochial fees The Incumbent or P-in-C has the right to waive the DBF fee “in a particular case”* The DBF will have to find the additional fund for stipends elsewhere The Incumbent or P-in-C has also the right to waive the PCC fee after consulting with the CWs PCCs will approach the Rural Dean in the case of a vacancy * This means that the Incumbent/P-in-C cannot issue a general, blanket waiver of fees in the parish.

Retired Ministers with PTO Funeral Directors have been instructed to make all payments to the PCC/benefice Retired Ministers will approach the PCC/benefice for their apportionment of fees and travel expenses Should the Retired Minister refuse a fee, then the whole fee (excluding the PCC element) is payable to the DBF

Other Ministers Self Supporting Ministers, Readers and Chaplains are not entitled to receive a portion of the fees unless this has been provided for in their role description and agreed with the Bishop, or where they have suffered a loss of earnings House for Duty Priests are treated in the same manner as stipendiary clergy
