Law and the Church
Question 1
List nine (9) laws, or as many as possible if less than nine, concerning clergy that you
have found by searching your nearest municipality laws. By municipality, we mean on
the village or town level. I f there are none, then tell us how you found that out.
Municipalities in England do not have authority to make laws concerning clergy. They can only
make laws to the extent specifically authorized by an Act of Parliament. To date, they have only been
authorized to make laws concerning the following: good rule and government and the prevention of
nuisances; public walks and pleasure grounds; open spaces and burial grounds; public bathing; markets;
amusement premises and pleasure fairs; and hairdressers and barbers. I found this out from the Crown
Copyright paper Local Authority Byelaws in England on the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister
website.
Question 2
I f there is a body of laws between the municipality laws and the state/provincial laws
where you live, list nine (9) laws, or as many as possible if less than nine, concerning
clergy, that you have found by searching this area.
There is no law-making body at this level in England.
Question 3
List nine (9) laws concerning clergy that you have found by searching your
state/provincial laws.

Any relative, friend, or legal representative having the charge of or being responsible for the burial of a
deceased person may give forty-eight hours notice in writing, indorsed on the outside Notice of
Burial, to, or leave or cause the same to be left at the usual place of abode of the rector, vicar, or other
incumbent, or in his absence the officiating minister in charge of any parish or ecclesiastical district or
place, or any person appointed by him to receive such notice, that it is intended that such deceased
person shall be buried within the churchyard or graveyard of such parish or ecclesiastical district or
place without the performance, in the manner prescribed by law, of the service for the burial of the dead
according to the rites of the Church of England, and after receiving such notice no rector, vicar,
incumbent, or officiating minister shall be liable to any censure or penalty, ecclesiastical or civil, for
permitting any such burial as aforesaid. Such notice shall be in writing, plainly signed with the name and
stating the address of the person giving it, and shall be in the form or to the effect of Schedule (A.)
annexed to this Act.

Question 5
How do laws of your nation, state, or local area respond to Paganism and Neo-Pagan
clergy? Are there laws that prohibit certain functions our clergy usually serve (such
as divination, counseling, or conducting marriages or funerals)? Does your country
implicitly or explicitly state that Neo-Pagans cannot have clergy, or that they cannot
perform certain functions or receive similar rights as those from other religions?
Eilidh nic Sidheag
Member # 7125

May 23 2014
The laws in England insofar as they address religion are heavily influenced by the historical
position of the (Anglican) Church of England as the established religion. This can be seen, for instance,
in the requirement to notify Church of England clergy of burials taking place in their parishes according
to rites other than those of the Church of England and in the restriction of the prison chaplain title to
Church of England clergy, although other clergy can be appointed as ministers (see question 4 above.)
Other religions are treated as something of an afterthought, although outright discrimination is forbidden
as a result of the Human Rights Act (see question 4 above).
NeoPaganism is not specifically mentioned in English laws, but there is no particular obstacle to
NeoPagans having clergy, and indeed Pagan clergy have received a degree of official recognition in the
prison system, as outlined in optional question 2 below.
In general, there is no prohibition on our clergy offering their usual services; divination,
counseling and conducting funerals are all permitted, provided the clergy comply with the general
consumer protection laws and other relevant laws (see question 8 below). There is a degree of inequality
in the procedures that apply, e.g. as to the notification requirement for burials, but typically this is not a
serious obstacle to providing the service. The exception is marriage, as only Quakers, Jewish clergy and
Church of England clergy can automatically carry out legally binding marriages in England. Other
religions and denominations must first register one of their buildings for marriage ceremonies and then
secure agreement from a registrar to attend their marriage ceremonies in order to register them. After
one year, it is then possible to register one of the groups members (usually clergy) as an authorised
person to register marriages. Once a building is registered, it can be used for same-sex as well as
different-sex marriages, provided the governing body of the religious organisation agrees (see question 4
above and Frequently Asked Questions)
However, the requirements to register a place of worship for marriages are onerous; in
particular, at least twenty households must worship in the building regularly in addition to the
Eilidh nic Sidheag
Member # 7125
CTP-Prelim

10
May 23 2014
proprietor(s), and the householder of each of those households must sign the application form
(General Register Office). As a result, to the best of my knowledge no Pagan group in England has yet
registered.
Question 6
Looking at those laws listed in questions 1 - 4 and how they affect you, are there any
specific laws that seem out of place, unfair, or unjust? What is the avenue for change
to these laws, and do you see change to these particular laws as necessary?
I think it is unfair that the Church of England is privileged in law in a number of ways.
Generally, this takes the form of an assumption that the Church of England is the default even where
functions can be carried out by other clergy. This is seen, for instance, in the requirement for burials
under other rites to be notified to Church of England clergy and in the fact that the titles of prison
chaplain and assistant prison chaplain are restricted to Church of England clergy (see question 4 above.).
While these are not great disadvantages for other clergy, they do seem out of place in a modern
democracy in which most people do not worship in the Church of England (Parish Attendance).
I think the greatest unfairness is caused by the different regimes that apply to different religions
as regards legally binding weddings (see question 5 above). Because in practice these rules make it
prohibitively difficult for Pagans to carry out legal weddings, there is a real impact on Pagan couples,
who are obliged to have a separate civil ceremony (and to pay a corresponding fee) if they wish their
marriage to be legally recognised. This creates an additional financial and logistical burden that does not
apply to couples in the Church of England, Quaker or Jewish religions.
Although I am not sure it is absolutely necessary, I would certainly like to see these laws
redrawn so that all religions are treated equally. Equalizing the marriage laws would be my highest
Eilidh nic Sidheag
Member # 7125
CTP-Prelim

11
May 23 2014
priority, because that is where Pagans are at the greatest disadvantage, and the additional burden falls on
the laity seeking to get married rather than on the clergy.
All of these laws would require an Act of Parliament to change. Realistically, this means
lobbying a relevant Government minister, most likely the Home Secretary or the Minister for Equalities,
to sponsor a Bill making the required changes and to ask the whips of the Government parties to instruct
their Members of Parliament to vote for the Bill in all three of the required votes (known as Readings).
Once the Bill has been approved by the House of Commons (our lower chamber of Parliament), it would
also have to be voted on three times by the House of Lords (our upper chamber). Once a Bill has been
approved by both Houses, it is signed by the Queen (known as Royal Assent) and is then known as an
Act, which comes into force on a date specified either in the Act or by the relevant Minister.
Question 7
How do you see these laws affecting how you serve your Grove, ADF, or the
community as a whole?
Unless I am ever in the fortunate position of leading a Grove that owns its own building and has
twenty households represented amongst its regular worshippers, it seems unlikely that I will ever be in a
position to conduct legal weddings in light of the considerations set out in question 5, but I would expect
to conduct handfastings from time to time and to advise the participants on how to arrange a civil
marriage either before or after the ceremony, should they wish to do so. If I did find myself in a position
to register a building for marriages, I would of course want to ask the Mother Grove for the required
written authorization to conduct same-sex marriages (see questions 4 and 5), as equality is important to
me both as an LGBT activist myself and in accordance with ADF policy.
I would expect to carry out the full range of other services normally offered by our clergy,
including divination and counseling. I would of course need to abide by the consumer protection laws in
Eilidh nic Sidheag
Member # 7125
CTP-Prelim

12
May 23 2014
doing so, but these seem to me to represent good practice in any event and so do not really add any
additional constraints; it would certainly never be my intention to deceive people or exploit any
vulnerable situation in which they find themselves, but rather to help them to the best of my abilities. In
carrying out burials, I would need to follow the required formalities, but my understanding is that in
practice this is usually taken care of by the undertakers, so I would seek to get to know our main local
undertaking firms and liaise with them on this.
I would not expect to make use of the clergy exemption from jury duty (see question 4), as I can
see no intrinsic reason why clergy should not serve their communities in this way. It would seem
particularly inappropriate for a Druid to take advantage of this exemption, given that ancient Druids are
known to have had a role in lawgiving and resolving disputes, and this is reflected in Article 1.8 of the
ADF Constitution.
I would hope also not to have to make active use of the protection from discrimination offered
by the Human Rights Act or the protection from obstruction in carrying out worship that clergy enjoy
under the Offences Against the Person Act (see question 4), but it is useful to be aware of these laws in
case the need does arise.
I would potentially be interested in prison ministry as permitted by the Prison Act (see question
4), as I have taught law in prisons before as part of a lectureship with the Open University and found it
very rewarding. More details of the procedure for this are set out in optional question 2 below.
Question 8
What is the difference between pastoral counseling and other kinds of counseling,
and does the law differentiate between these types? What sort of license do you
require in your state in order to perform counseling of any type? Does divination fall
into this sort of counseling?
Eilidh nic Sidheag
Member # 7125
CTP-Prelim

13
May 23 2014
Pastoral counseling takes place within a religious context in which the counselor is theologically
trained, is recognized by and accountable to a religious community, and uses insights from that religious
tradition to help the client reflect on their situation. Other kinds of counseling typically take place in a
secular context (Patrick).
Counseling is not currently regulated by law in the United Kingdom (Psychotherapy), and
thus the law makes no distinction between pastoral and other types of counseling, nor is any license
required. There is no specific regulation of divination, but anyone providing divination as a commercial
practice is subject to the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008, available at
<http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2008/1277/contents/made>, which amongst other things prohibit
the provision of misleading information (section 5.2), the failure to adhere to a code of conduct that the
trader has committed to adhere to (section 5.3), and the exploitation of a clients misfortune (section
7.2). Failure to comply with these regulations may constitute a criminal offense (sections 8 to 12).
Question 9
Describe the mandatory reporting laws in your area and how they affect you as a
clergyperson. Explain the process you would go through to file a report if it were
necessary.
There is no mandatory reporting law in England. However, the Government has issued guidance
recommending that all places of worship and faith-based organisations should make appropriate
arrangements for the safeguarding of children (p.57). It is good practice also to make arrangements for
safeguarding vulnerable adults. This is usually done by establishing a written policy, which will
typically be required in order to gain charitable status and/or liability insurance. The Churches Child
Protection Advisory Service (CCPAS, http://www.ccpas.co.uk/index.html) provides model policies and
guidance. As an ADF clergyperson, I would therefore aim to ensure that any Grove I am involved with
Eilidh nic Sidheag
Member # 7125
CTP-Prelim

14
May 23 2014
has such a policy.
The process I would follow to report a suspicion of abuse in England is to contact the Social
Care Department at the local authority for the area where the child or vulnerable adult resides. Parents or
carers should not normally be informed that this is being done. Usually the first contact should be by
telephone, followed up within 48 hours in writing. Some local authorities have their own form for this,
others will accept a letter. The form or letter should include a request for written confirmation that action
will be taken. Social Care Departments should provide this confirmation within 24 hours; if they do not
do so, I would contact the Department to follow up. If the circumstances indicated an immediate need
for medical attention, I would also call a doctor, and in the case of an immediate threat to the safety of a
child or vulnerable adult, I would also consider informing the police in addition to the Social Care
Department (Help).
Optional Question 1
What are the rules regarding outside worship for any local military base, and what
happens if a soldier on that base wants access to a priest who is not in the military or
not a military chaplain? I f there are no local military bases, what are the general
rules?
The only military facility local to me is a Territorial Army (i.e. reservist) training building.
Soldiers typically attend once a week on a weekday evening for drills and physical training. As such, the
issue of worship or access to priests would not be expected to arise, since soldiers are free to attend the
place of worship of their choice at any other time.
In general, the British Army is subject to the same anti-discrimination legislation as any other
employer. Its general policy is to provide soldiers with the opportunity to practise their religion,
Eilidh nic Sidheag
Member # 7125
CTP-Prelim

15
May 23 2014
consistent with operational effectiveness, health and safety and organizational needs. Soldiers are not
required to attend worship, but equally, reasonable requests to do so are to be considered objectively and
allowed wherever possible. Soldiers who wish to pray or otherwise worship on their base are encouraged
to discuss their requirements with their commanding officer or other line manager, and such requests are
to be accommodated where possible; normally such prayer or worship should take place during breaks
or off-duty periods, but commanding officers and line managers have the authority to make exceptions
after discussion with the soldier (Guide).
Time off for outside worship on religious festivals or other special days can also be requested via
the commanding officer or line manager, but this comes from the soldiers annual leave entitlement
unless it happens to coincide with a public holiday or off-duty time. The title of Army chaplain is
reserved exclusively for Christian denominations, but civilian chaplains and other spiritual advisers can
be appointed from other faiths (currently Buddhist, Jewish, Hindu, Muslim and Sikh, these being
numerically the largest non-Christian religions represented in the British armed forces; only
approximately 60-80 soldiers have identified themselves as Pagan, Pagans). All bases maintain a list
of nearby non-Christian places of worship and religious contacts (Guide), so it may be worthwhile for
me to contact the local base once I am ordained and ask to be added to this list.
Optional Question 2
What are the regulations and options for prison ministry in your county and state?
As noted under question 4, under the Prison Act 1952, all prisons must have a chaplain from the
Church of England, who may visit any prisoner who wishes to consult him or her, regardless of the
prisoners religious affiliation. The Secretary of State may additionally appoint paid ministers of other
religions and/or allow unpaid visits by ministers of other religions, but such ministers may only visit
prisoners who have declared an affiliation to their religion.
Eilidh nic Sidheag
Member # 7125

16
May 23 2014
The policy of the Secretary of State is that the makeup of chaplaincy teams, including paid and
unpaid ministers of other religions, should reflect the religious makeup of the prison population. Teams
are expected to meet at least bi-monthly (Crown Copyright, Faith, pp.4-5).
All prisoners should receive an introductory visit from a member of the team, who (if not of the
prisoners own faith) should inform the prisoner of who the relevant team member is for their faith and
should inform that team member of the prisoners arrival. Prisoners are also entitled to receive visits
from their home clergy up to once per month, and members of the prisoners faith community should be
allowed and encouraged to attend faith activities in the prison in order to assist with re-integration of
prisoners. All prisoners should be given the opportunity to attend worship or meditation for their faith
for one hour per week, which should be the main religious observance of the week for that faith. This
may be led by a prisoner if no chaplain is available. Groups of prisoners may also meet informally for
worship, study or meditation on the same basis as for other small-group activities. Prisoners should not
be expected to do non-essential work on key feast days for their faith; Pagan prisoners may nominate up
to four of the standard NeoPagan High Days for this purpose. Appropriate seasonal foods should be
provided for Pagan festivals. Suitable places for worship and meditation must be provided, including a
dedicated space for private spiritual counselling. (Crown Copyright, Faith, pp.6-13, 75).
Space permitting, Pagan prisoners will normally be allowed to set up a small altar in their cell and
to use incense, which must be purchased from the chaplaincy. One piece of religious jewellery is
allowed, subject to a risk assessment. Skyclad worship is not allowed, but a hoodless ritual robes is
permitted. Pagan prisoners are also permitted to have an incense holder, a flexible twig for use as a
wand, rune stones and a bag or box to keep them in, and a chalice. Tarot cards may be used for personal
use only, not to carry out divination for others, and normally only under the supervision of a chaplain,
although exceptions may be made following a risk assessment. Pagan prisoners whose tradition requires
it should be permitted to shower prior to group worship where possible (Crown Copyright, Faith,
Eilidh nic Sidheag
Member # 7125
CTP-Prelim

17
May 23 2014
pp.73-76).
The chaplaincy team is entitled to be notified of and expected to provide support to prisoners who
are about to be discharged; wish to marry; become seriously ill; attempt suicide or self-harm; or whose
family members die or become seriously ill. They are also responsible for conducting a funeral rite of
the appropriate religion for deceased prisoners if no other (e.g. family) arrangements are in place
(Crown Copyright, Faith, pp.19-22).
The Pagan Federation (UK) has a Prison Ministry Manager who provides advice to the Prison
Service on issues related to pagan prisoners (Crown Copyright, Faith, p.74, where their contact details
may also be found.) Pagan chaplaincy team members must be members of and endorsed by the Pagan
Federation, which can be arranged by contacting the Prison Ministry Manager. This route is the only one
available for Pagan clergy seeking opportunities for prison ministry in England. I am a member of the
Pagan Federation, so I could use this route if my vocation leads me in the direction of prison work.
