Updated 10 July 2021
The Church of England has published a series of documents about the conduct of the elections to General Synod that will take place this summer, starting very shortly after the close of the July group of sessions. Although much of this is aimed at those conducting the elections, the documents will be of wider interest.
Not included in these documents are the numbers of proctors (clergy) and laity to be elected by dioceses, but they can be found in GS 2203.
There is also some information aimed at those considering standing for election.
Update
An error was discovered in the calculations of the numbers of proctors and laity included in GS 2203. These numbers were updated and approved by General Synod on 10 July and can be found in GS 2214.
Lets hope the electorate vote in rather greater numbers than is usual!
This will be the most significant General Synod election since 1990.
Why?
Does anyone know the current representation rules for Religious Communities?
You will find them in the Clergy Election Rules (Part 7) and the House of Laity Election Rules (Part 4).
Many thanks.
