ARMY CHAPLAINS ACT 1868 - SECT 9

Power by Order in Council to declare extra-parochial districts to be under jurisdiction of archbishop or bishop named in Order, who shall exercise jurisdiction over chaplains officiating therein.

9. It shall be lawful for the Queen's most excellent Majesty in Council, upon
the recommendation of one of Her Majesty's Principal Secretaries of State, at
any time to declare all or any of the extra-parochial districts set out under
the provisions of this Act to be under the exclusive jurisdiction of such
archbishop or bishop of the said United Church as may be named in such Order
during such time as Her Majesty shall see fit; and thereupon it shall be
lawful for such archbishop or bishop to exercise over any army chaplain
appointed to officiate within any such extra-parochial district all the powers
and authority which he is by law authorized to exercise over any clerk in holy
orders of the said United Church holding any preferment within his diocese:
Provided always, that the previous consent in writing of the said archbishop
or bishop named therein shall be obtained before the making of such order; and
further, that after the making of such Order and until the revocation thereof,
all other ecclesiastical jurisdiction in respect of the extra-parochial
districts named in such Order shall wholly cease.
