520 _aHighlights a number of important issues relating to the disposal of ornaments and furnishings from Anglican churches. Outlines the responsibilities of churchwardens and parochial church councils who are subject to Cannon Law and the Faculty Jurisdiction Rules 2000 and require permission to dispose of anything other than items considered to be of 'de minimis' value. Individuals engaged in the antiques and fine art profession, such as chartered arts and antique surveyors and auctioneers, need to be familiar with the Faculty Jurisdiction Rules and should practice due diligence. They should also have sources available for tracing and tracking stolen works of art such as the Art Loss Register. Extensive reference to case law throughout illustrates problems and conflicts of interest between the preservation of cultural objects and the financial necessity to sell off assets in order to preserve the financial security of the parish.
