This Measure puts in place a legislative framework to enable the
introduction of new terms and conditions of service (to be known as
'common tenure') for clergy and certain lay ministers in the Church
of England. At present, the clergy of the Church of England can
hold office in three different ways: 'freehold' offices as
archbishop, bishop, dean or residentiary can on of a cathedral,
archdeacon or incumbent of a benefice; hold office under a licence
from a diocesan bishop, and engaged as chaplains or in other types
of ministry, usually under a contract of employment, coupled with a
licence from a diocesan bishop. The Measure retains the established
office-holder status of clergy - while conferring upon them, for
the first time, many of the legal rights enjoyed by employees.
These include rights to stipend and housing, a statement of
particulars of office, annual and other leave and continuing
ministerial education. The legislation also specifies the
circumstances in which an office can be terminated, and defines
certain particular cases where an appointment can be made on a
fixed or limited-term basis. The Measure enables regulations to
require office holders to take part in regular ministerial
development reviews, as well as introducing a capability procedure
designed to address issues of poor performance. The Committee is of
the view that the proposed move towards uniform tenure arrangements
will establish a clear, consistent and transparent framework for
the terms of service of the clergy as a whole and will give many
clergy, for the first time, substantial employment-type rights. The
text of the Measure is contained in "HL 35-I/HC 270" (ISBN
9780104014400).
