- This report will now be distributed to the Provinces, Diocesan Bishops and future members of the Task Force, along with the action taken by the Council.

- Prologue
- In presenting the report of the Committee on Organization, Chancellor R.H. Soward stated that the committee had not been able to examine the Price-Waterhouse report on "Restructuring the General Synod Committees and the Position of the General Secretary," in detail and introduced two resolutions related to the report for consideration.
- (1) "That the Committee on Theological Education should be renamed the Committee on Ministry with its scope open to include all areas that logically fall within the context suggested by that designation."
- In the discussion that followed, it was agreed that the proposed name change of the committee required further study.
- (2) "That the Committee on Organization welcomes the Price-Waterhouse report as being in harmony with the policy that the Committee on Organization has pursued under the direction of General Synod and we recommend that NEC appoint a committee of five members to meet with three members of the Organization Committee to consider the report of Price-Waterhouse on restructuring the General Synod Committees and Commissions and the position of General Secretary and to report through the Organization Committee to NEC at its February meeting."
- It was agreed that the three members would be the Chairman, Chancellor Soward and the General Secretary.
- Following further discussion, it was moved [and seconded]
- Text
- That the National Executive Council approves the recommendation of the Committee on Organization that there be a joint committee of 5 members of the National Executive Council and 3 members of the Organization Committee to study the Price-Waterhouse Report on Restructuring the General Synod Committees and Commissions and the position of General Secretary and to report its finding through the Organization Committee at the February meeting of this National Executive Council; and the National Executive Council requests the Primate to name the 5 members of this executive and the Chairman of the Organization Committee to name the three members of the Organization Committee.
