AMY MARTIN ASKS PRIESTS FOR COPIES OF THEIR WILLS.

An Armagh priest has sent me a copy of Eamon Martin’s latest letter to priests.

He is reminding.priests to update their wills and lodge a copy of their wills in the archbishop’s House.

Conveniently he is supplying priests with a Will Template.

He is remind priests that they themselves are responsible for the cost of their funeral, their grave, their headstone and any after funeral booze up 😀

In the past, in many dioceses paid for priest’s funeral. Those days seem gone.

I would imagine a goodly number of Armagh priests would not want Amy Martin reading their will and finding out what money property and possessions might have?

Some priests may have family money?

Others will have things left to them in wills by parishioners.

There will be some priests who have paid themselves extra out of parish monies over the years and decades.

As my father used to say: “Every priest christens his own child first”.

Pat, it’s not unusual for Bishops to request wills but I would not agree with it as a policy. I have never known of any Diocese paying for a priests funeral. As “self employed”, we have to arrange for all such expenses ourselves and I have no difficulty with this. You know that. Why feign surprise? Ate you trying to stir up mischief? I agree that we make our own arrangements and only those we entrust with our will should have access to it or a close family relative. Who’ll pay for your funeral booze up? I ask the question as you cynically suggest! I’ve been to many priests funerals and there was never a booze up. Ever. Why the lie?

I always assumed, as a parishoner, that the parish paid for a PP’s funeral. It’s a diocesan event, so I thought it was akin to the military funeral of a soldier, where the MOD pays for the funeral and headstone.

The Will template is shocking the kind of thing you’d buy at WH Smith’s. Those templates keep contentious probate solicitors in business when disputes arise after the testator’s death. It’s reckless of the Archbishop to enclose one. He should encourage his clergy to make a proper Will with a solicitor.

Thanks for the warning. I was going to use it as a template (I’m a lay man) in order to save a few bob by not going to a solicitor, but it looks like a false economy.

Last time I looked at the will templates on sale in WH Smith it said that the reflected the law of England and Wales and were not recommended for use in Scotland or NI. I am surprised that Amy is promoting a single template for an archdiocese that spans the border. Is the law on this the same on both sides of the border?

Like

NI would be similar to England and Wales. Scots law is based on Roman Law and I believe that part of an estate must devolve under a ‘forced heirship’ regime. It is a false economy to attempt your own will. It’s best to search out a solicitor who is a member of the Society of Trusts and Estate Practitioners as they are highly qualified in this field of law. Solicitors are also obliged to hold professional indemnity insurance, so if an error does come to light after your death, then at least your beneficiaries have that to fall back on. The archbishop must have taken leave of his senses sending out that template.

Properly drawn up wills by solicitors aren’t expensive, considering the certainty they provide and the potential future problems they avoid.

Priests have the worst employment rights. They are required to be self-employed and, as such, they do not have the rights of employees (eg a contract of employment etc) yet they are also at the mercy of their bishop, who has huge power over them.
If they are truly self-employed why can a bishop tell them where to live, or ask for their will? It seems that priests have many obligations to their bishop (who is their employer in all but name), but no employee rights.
It is the worst of both worlds, being neither truly self-employed nor truly an employee. A true employee would have death in service payments, which would cover their funeral costs.

In my previous life as a National Insurance Inspector, I used to adjudicate as to whether a person was an employee (contract of service) or self-employed (contract for services). The situation of ministers of religion is really bizarre. By all the normal rules, most of them are plainly, undeniably employees. The killer is the requirement to live in a particular building, as you might demand of a soldier in barracks or a live-in butler. Neither of them are self-employed. The piles of restrictions as to how you do your job are another massive pointer towards employee status. Want to invent your own sacraments, Liturgical calender or your personal text of the Mass? Plus the ability of a bishop to move you from Parish A to Parish B any time, just as the Army transfers a soldier.

It’s the most bizarre definition of “self-employed” that I’ve ever come across. Is it a tax/National Insurance dodge by dioceses, so that priests pay lower National Insurance and the diocese does not have to pay employer’s National Insurance, or is it just to ensure that priest’s don’t have employee rights?

Like

Self Employed just means you are not payed via PAYE system (Pay As You Earn) in the UK. It is just a tax thing — it means the Diocese doesn’t have to have employ extra staff to “do your tax.” That’s why self employed people have to pay for their own accounts.
However, in many regards, priests are quite different from other self employed people, like they don’t have mortgages — and they often more than dependent on their diocese for many things which “normal” self employed people are not reliant on others for: it is quite unfair in this latter respect, and this can be a used as a “hold” on a person so to speak. It makes them more vulnerable if the Bishop is a person who is adept in the ways of abuse — and the covering up of same…

More proof of RCC obsession with money & above all else – that’s their real God whatever else they might say. There is no need whatsoever for this blatant intrusion into personal finances of individual clergy. It would be suffice for clergy to sign a document simply confirming that they have made a Will and that they have left funds & instructions for burial etc. & to confirm the firm of solicitors where Will is held. No other employer asks for the actual Will itself to be lodged in its offices. Funeral arrangements could be lodged in Archbishops office in case death occurs at weekend but no need for Will to be lodged there. Given all the other well documented violations & disrespect demonstrated & upheld by Church hierarchy – this is clearly a cynical ploy to access private financial information.

Like

I think the only other organisation that will ask for your will and funeral arrangements is the army in times of war. Amy thinks a lot of himself to believe that clergy will trust him with their will and funeral arrangements, and I suspect a lot of them will simply ignore this latest missive. Bishops so often say that clergy are self-employed operators, and that the diocese has no responsibility or liability for them, especially in the last number of decades in respect of abusive clergy. Although, I think some courts in some jurisdictions have corrected that and ensured that dioceses and bishops do have some kind of vicarious liability for priests who work for them. Seems as though Amy and co want it all ways whenever and however it suits them. This will / funeral business is another one of these occasions, because knowledge and possession of these kinds of things will give them some leverage and power. I say tell him to sling his hook, dear Fathers !

I’ve never know of a bishop insisting in a will but information about a priest’s funerals is necessary for the local ordinary. The full will, no. Absolutely not.

Most sensible and prudent I should have thought for the Archbishop of Armagh to write to his priests about their wills and funeral arrangements. I’m surprised he is so gentle about it as over here priests have to lodge their wills and arrangements with the bishop, no ifs or buts! In fact priests are encourage to take out a funeral plan with a local and trusted “Catholic”undertaker and pay for it before it happens. I’m surprised to learn that in Ireland a priests funeral and headstone would be paid by anyone other than his family or estate. Again in England every priest, be he curate or Cardinal, has to stump up for his own obsequies. Spud Murphy O Connors family had to pay not only for only for his funeral, but the rather fine and very expensive white marble slab that covers his tomb in Westminster Cathedral.

Bishops arguing that their clergy are self-employed is designed, as commentators have said, to avoid National Insurance and tax liabilities on the Diocese, and to avoid as far as possible taking any responsibility for the actions of a priest, especially abusive and criminal actions. The Courts have seen the inconsistency of a priest being claimed to be self-employed with consequent diocesan / episcopal lack of responsibility or liability, and the fact that clergy have a promise of obedience to a bishop and are moved around at the bishop’s will. In many jurisdictions, a diocese and bishop can no longer continue to pedal the fiction that he has no responsibility and liability for his priests and their actions, and is now deemed in many respects to have vicarious liability. Still, however, priests are treated atrociously by bishops who expect that in order to receive any benefits, especially in retirement, priests are required to tow the line and to continue paying deference and obedience to their bishop.

Bloody hell. You finally admit that you know nothing about something? Big surprise cos you always think you lnow about everything. Whatever else they taught you in cabra, they certainly didn’t teach you humility.

Im only human with flaws as I don’t know everything.
Cabra teaches you a lot of brutality, physical pains or hurts, demeaning words, failed education as I could go on. As they lack humility such as yourself cos you like it or love putting people down if they are people with disabilities. That said, it says all and more about you. Nuff said 😉🙈

Awk dont talk crap. The fact that you are a balloon had nothing to do with your disability! Its the fact that you spout crap continually when you clearly have nothing of substance to say. And when you’re called out on that you play the disability card. Pathetic.

Nothing to do with ontological, it’s +Martin fishing for information in wills that might affect his diocese.
Priests are self employed as they have no obligation to +Martin as regards to wills as that’s my view. Diocese don’t pay their funeral bills (case of self employed priests)

Amy cheap will is going to cause the diocese problems. You get what you pay for. An entrepreneur with a £100m estate paid £140 for a will from a high street solicitor, and unsurprisingly it failed.
