- Seconder
- Bishop Barry Hollowell
- Prologue
- Mr. Jim Sweeny and Bishop Barry Hollowell presented the report and noted that the committee had been moving to ensure the continuance of the publication of the Anglican Journal.
- Text
- That the Council of General Synod direct the Officers in consultation with the Information Resources Committee to take steps to form a new non-profit, charitable corporation to publish the Anglican Journal and Ministry Matters. Following discussion (see below) the motion was voted on and CARRIED #08-11-01
- Notes
- Discussion:
- Archbishop Crawley expressed concern regarding three statements in Appendix A of the report:
- - Governance - In the event of General Synod insolvency, the Journal Corporation can be sold (e.g. to the Metropolitans or Provinces);
- - Financing - In the event of General Synod insolvency, dioceses could assume the entire cost of operation of the Journal corporation. This would represent no increase in total diocesan expenditure since dioceses would no longer pay apportionment of General Synod;
- - Charitable Status - In the event of General Synod insolvency, the same advantages may be obtained through an association with another existing charitable structure (e.g., the Ecclesiastical Provinces).
- The General Secretary made note of the concerns.
- The need for a mechanism whereby, in times of national church emergency, General Synod would have access to the Anglican Journal as a communication vehicle was raised
- Notice of Motions
- Bishops Hollowell, noted that the Anglican Journal "is the premier communication vehicle" of the Anglican Church of Canada, and gave notice of a motion to amend the budget, and thus allow the Journal size to increase from 12 to 16 pages.
- Bishop Harvey gave notice of an amendment to the motion, which would set aside one page of the Journal for use by the Officers of General Synod.
