Scope and Content
Administrative / Biographical History
Constituted under the Diocesan Boards of Patronage Measure (1932), the Diocesan Board of Patronage is entitled to acquire, hold, transfer and exercise rights of patronage to benefices. Under the Patronage (Benefices) Measure (1986), the Diocesan Registry is required to keep a register of patrons to benefices. If there is no registered patron of a particular benefice, then the Diocesan Board of Patronage becomes patron.
