Diocesan Mission and Pastoral Committees
The Dioceses, Pastoral and Mission Measure 2007 provided for a
new committee to be appointed by 31 August 2009 in each diocese to
replace the pastoral committee and the redundant churches uses
committee. These functions are now contained in Part 2 of the
Mission and Pastoral Measure 2011, with Schedule 1 of this Measure
providing for its constitution and procedure.
The DMPC's functions include:
- reviewing arrangements for pastoral supervision and care in the
diocese;
- preparing strategies or proposals for making better provision
for the cure of souls, which may include reorganisation, and making
recommendations to the Bishop;
- carrying out responsibilities in relation to the future of
churches no longer required for public worship.
