The national church is holding a consultation as part of a review into the qualifications for membership of PCCs looking particularly at a code of conduct for PCCs.

The review is being led by the Elections Review Group (ERG) which is a sub-committee of the General Synod Business Committee. Following motions passed at Synod, the ERG has been tasked with undertaking the review.

Issues have been raised at previous General Synod meetings, and the ERG would like to bring forward suggestions to a future group of sessions on how to streamline the qualifications for PCC membership, with an aim to encouraging and enabling more people to put themselves forward; and to share good practice on how to support PCCs to address issues related to conduct.

This consultation is aimed at anyone with an interest in the issues around PCC membership and conduct.

The form for responses is here and it should take no more than 15 minutes to complete this form. The closing date is September 30, 2024.
