| Summary: | The territorial differentiation of French law, which is a form of adaptation of the legal regime to various historical, cultural or geographical local situations, fully applies to the public funding of religious activities. It is expressed in two ways: the non-application of the 1905 Act on the separation in some territories; the existence of special status accorded to certain denominations in some areas. Is this diversity of legal systems in religious matters compatible with the constitutional principles? The jurisprudence of the Constitutional Council ensures the continuation of historical regimes in light of these principles, but restricts any development departing from the common law. |
