Lay trust polity is the governance form recorded in this atlas for religious bodies whose lay boards or trusts govern alongside the priesthood. Wikipedia describes a trustee, in its broadest sense, as anyone in a position of trust and so any individual who holds property, authority, or a position of trust or responsibility for the benefit of another, which is the role the lay members of such a board play. In this atlas the entity stands for the governance form itself, so denominations, religious orders and societies governed this way can be grouped and compared under it, while each member entry keeps its own governance facts and sources.
