About this statute

This provision says parish councils govern parish church and administrative matters, have duties about elections and records, and some roles and powers are reserved to the bishop and the Minister for Ecclesiastical Affairs. Section 7 sets rules for when council members must leave, may stay, or may return, and it assigns the bishop and council powers to decide related disputes. Section 20 sets rules for parish council meetings, voting, committee duties, confidentiality, and who may decide procedure disputes. Præster og en kirkefunktionærrepræsentant må ikke deltage i bestemte sager, og menighedsrådet og formanden har flere møde-, samtykke- og samarbejdsregler. Fællesbestyrelsens flertal skal være lægfolk, og medlemmer vælges for 2 år med halvdelen på valg hvert år. Provisionen giver også tilsyns- og sanktionsbeføjelser til kirkelige myndigheder.
