GENERAL SYNOD BENEFIT PLANS ADMINISTRATION AND
EXPENSES REGULATION PURSUANT TO SECTION 4 OF CANON VIII
Moved by: The Most Rev. Gregory Kerr-Wilson
Seconded by: Mr. Chris Wood
Be it resolved:
That the Council of General Synod approves the recommendation of the Pension Committee to maintain 0.5% expense fund contribution (General Synod Benefit Plans Administration and Expenses Regulation Made Pursuant to Section 4 of Canon VIII) effective January 1, 2020.
Rationale: GSPP employers currently contribute 1.3% of earnings. Additional expense contributions in addition to contributions to the plan will be a deterrent to new groups. Analysis has shown that it is sustainable to pay administration expenses from the plan. As an interim measure, maintain 0.5% expense fund contribution until new groups join.
