<P><Text>The Order amends Schedule A1 to the Ecclesiastical Fees Measure 1986 by removing the following services from the table of matters in respect of which parochial fees may be prescribed: Service of Prayer and Dedication after a Civil Marriage, in church; Service of Thanksgiving for marriage in church; Memorial service in church.</Text></P>
<P><Text>The Order goes on to prescribe the parochial fees payable in respect of certain matters in connection with marriages and burials and the erection of monuments in churchyards and in respect of other, miscellaneous matters. The fees are in substitution for the fees prescribed by the Parochial Fees Order 2010 (<Citation URI="http://www.legislation.gov.uk/id/uksi/2010/1924" id="c00001" Class="UnitedKingdomStatutoryInstrument" Year="2010" Number="1924">S.I. 2010/1924</Citation>).</Text></P>
