3 CLERGY REMUNERATION AND RETIREMENT PLAN DIOCESE OF BATHURST STATUTES FEBRUARY 2014 Preamble The Vatican Council II Decree on the Ministry and Life of Priests (Presbyterorum Ordinis) recommended that the remuneration of priests should be the same for all living in the same circumstances (n 20). It further suggested that the offerings of the faithful for the clergy be collected by a diocesan agency administered by the bishop (n 21). The year after the closure of the Council, Pope Paul VI (Motu proprio, 6 th August 1966, Ecclesiae Sanctae) issued norms for the implementation of four Council decrees, including Presbyterorum Ordinis, nn Paul VI stated that these norms should be observed ad experimentum until the Code of Canon Law, and then under revision, be promulgated. Following the norms of Ecclesiae Sanctae, the then Bishop of Bathurst, + A R E Thomas established a remuneration scheme that conformed to the intent of the Decree on the Ministry and Life of Priests (Presyterorum Ordinis). This scheme was maintained by the next Bishop, + Patrick Dougherty and in 2002 the initial Clergy Remuneration and Retirement Plan, Diocese of Bathurst was formally promulgated by Bishop Dougherty. This formalised arrangements for all the priests in the Diocese to work together and share resources for the common good of all. It was both a principled and practical arrangement for the remuneration, sustentation and accommodation of the clergy of the Diocese of Bathurst. When the Code of Canon Law was promulgated on 25 th January 1983, these same norms were given legislative force in Canons 281 and The Plan is part of wider arrangements made by the Bishop, following the prescriptions of Canon 1274, so as to fulfil his responsibilities for the support of the clergy. Following a process of consultation during , the current Bishop of Bathurst + Michael McKenna, formally approved these Statutes and Regulations by Decree dated 20 th February Clergy Remuneration and Retirement Statutes.doc 2

17 SECTION 2 THE OPERATION OF THE PASTORAL REVENUE The following Regulations implement the Statutes, Article 6.1 REGULATION 6 PARISH PASTORAL REVENUE ACCOUNTS 6.1 Each parish shall operate an interest bearing account with the CDF specifically named: [Name of Parish] Pastoral Revenue Account. The parochial district name of the parish as shown in the Australian Catholic Directory shall precede the words: Pastoral Revenue Account. 6.2 The Parish Pastoral Revenue Account shall be operated and administered by the Pastor, according to these Statutes and Church law. 6.3 The person authorised to operate the Parish Pastoral Revenue Account shall be the cleric authorised by the Bishop, or an appropriately authorised delegate of that cleric. 6.4 The following income, from whatever source, must be paid into the Parish Pastoral Revenue Account and can only be used for the purposes authorised in Regulation 7.

The payment is to be recorded appropriately 7.2 Housekeeping Expenses This includes all housekeeping expenses for cooks and cleaners (living quarters only), including salaries, PAYG withholding tax, statutory leave entitlements and any superannuation required to be paid to these employees Clergy Remuneration and Retirement Statutes.doc 16
