Parochial Church Councils (PCCs)

 

Responsibilities

The responsibilities and duties of Parochial Church Councils are set out in the Parochial Church Councils (Powers) Measure 1956.

Membership of church electoral rolls and the management of Parochial Church Meetings and Councils is governed by the Church Representation Rules 2006, available from the Church House Bookshop.

Electoral Roll

The Church Representation Rules 2006 require that every Parochial Church Council maintains an electoral roll. An Electoral Roll Officer should be appointed, whose role is to keep the roll up to date by making additions and removals from time to time. The electoral roll should be revised prior to each annual parochial church meeting. The Rules require that in the year 2007 and in every sixth year thereafter, a completely new Roll should be prepared. 

The CofE's Parish Resources website has all the forms you need to revise your electorial roll and run your annnual parochial church meeting.
