~The Deans and PALs

Here is a list of the Deans and the Pastoral Area Links.

(Deans have been appointed by Bishop Peter and their role is not time-limited. Pastoral Area Links were recommended by the Deans and clergy of each Area, and appointed by the Bishop on that basis, and their role is limited to the Walking Humbly process and its implementation (until Easter 2011) ; they will not necessarily be involved in whatever kind of consultative forum is established for each Area in the future. )
