I've been surprised to meet a number of people who serve on Parochial Church Councils who don't know what they're for!
The Parochial Church Councils (Powers) Measure 1956 says
"The functions of parochial church councils shall include—
(a) co-operation with the minister in promoting in the parish the whole mission of the Church, pastoral, evangelistic, social and ecumenical"
Now wouldn't that be nice.

Ahhh, now I know. Thank you Free Range Vicar.
I have been under the missapprehension that the point was to keep the clergy from watching TV at night.
Yours sincerely,
