17.—(1) The incumbent or priest in charge of an ecclesiastical parish situated wholly or partly in an area chargeable with the expenses of a cemetery shall, with respect to members of the Church of England who are his own parishioners or who die in his parish, where he is requested to do so, be under the same obligation to perform funeral services in the consecrated part, if any, of the cemetery as he has to perform funeral services in any churchyard of the ecclesiastical parish and shall be entitled to such fee as may be established by an order framed under section 2 of the Ecclesiastical Fees Measure 1962 for the time being in operation or, if no fee is so established, to such amount as may be fixed by the burial authority under article 15 as the fee payable in respect of services rendered by ministers of religion at their request.
(2) This article does not apply to a cemetery in the area subject to the Welsh Church Act.
