_v[2003] 3 WLR 283-336(54)
520 _a[2003] UKHL 37, 26 June 2003 Appellant PCC appealed against CA decision ([2001] EWCA Civ 713, Abs64829) which held that enforcing liability of a lay rector for chancel repair was contrary to the European Convention on Human Rights. The respondent (W) were owners of Glebe Farm. Part of the farm was rectorial property. The owners were therefore lay rectors and were therefore liable for paying for all repairs to the chancel of the local parish church. The appellant PCC served notices on W requiring them to put the chancel in property repair under the Chancel Repairs Act 1932. HL held that enforcing a lay rector's responsibility did not infringe W's rights under the Convention. Appeal dismissed. View judgment at www.parliament.the-stationery-office.co.uk/.
