(Yorkshire)."</FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>To start with
Yorkshire is a large geographical county with the following
Diocese:</FONT></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><FONT face="Times New Roman" size=3>Wakefield,
Sheffield, Bradford, Ripon & Leeds and York. All these have independent
DAC's and slightly differing rules about what can and cannot be carried out
without a Faculty. The York list can be found at: </FONT></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Picking up on what David was referring to I am
fully aware that there have been activities within York which I have discovered
work had been carried out which would properly be due a Faculty. Advisers can
only visit a parish after a request has come from the parish. In some of these
cases I know that work has been done after I had visited and sent an advice
report* to the parish. If work has been done then I am sure the Archdeacons
would want to follow this up, however, we then move into the extremely difficult
area of pastoral care for many small and financially stretched small parishes.
The ultimate measure would be a Consistory Court hearing. These are both costly
and someone bears the cost and still would rarely get the job done correctly.

adopted. Having been adopted are covered by liability insurance held by the
Diocese.</FONT></DIV>
