The Czech Bishops' Conference (CBC) (Czech: Česká biskupská konference) is the standing episcopal conference of the Catholic bishops of the Czech Republic. Based in Prague, the CBC represents the Catholic Church in the Czech Republic. It was founded in early 1993, the date of independence for the Czech Republic, as the successor to the Czechoslovak Bishops' Conference. Members of the Bishops' Conference according to canon 447 CIC: in conjunction perform pastoral duties in favor of the Christians in their territory, to achieve the greater good which the Church gives to people according to law, especially apostolic actions suitably adapted to the time and place. The Episcopal Church of the conference is a legal entity run by the Apostolic See, its character and activities are governed by the 1983 Code of Canon Law, specifically canons 447-459. Members of the Czech Bishops' Conference are diocesan bishops of Latin Church and Eastern Catholic Churches, and position them on an equal footing with auxiliary bishops and other titular bishops both within or outside for the Czech Republic and perform specific tasks under a mandate from the Holy See or the Czech Bishops' Conference.
