  • Minute of the Commission of the General Assembly
    Church of Scotland MINUTE OF THE COMMISSION OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY 5 May 2020 COMMISSION OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY 5 May 2020 CONCERNING CERTAIN STRAIGHTFORWARD, TIME-CRITICAL AND NON-CONTROVERSIAL MATTERS REQUIRING TO BE DEALT WITH AFTER CANCELLATION OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY 2020 On 17th March 2020, in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, the General Assembly 2020 was cancelled. At their meeting on 18th March 2020 the Assembly Business Committee agreed that there were certain straightforward, time-critical and non-controversial decisions which did need to be made at this time. They, therefore, requested that the Legal Questions Committee (LQC) call the Commission of Assembly appointed by the General Assembly of 2019. The Commission of Assembly Act (Act VI 1997) under “Meetings” enables the LQC to call a meeting of the Commission on its own initiative and under “Powers” says that such a Commission can “dispose of any matter affecting the interests of the Church at home and abroad when the Church would be adversely affected by postponing consideration until the time of the next General Assembly.” The LQC subsequently concurred with this request. On 20th April 2020 a Letter and Order of Proceedings was sent by email by the Principal Clerk, the Rev Dr George J Whyte, to the Commission of the General Assembly 2019. This set out in the form of a proposed deliverance, certain matters, characterised as “straightforward, time-critical and non- controversial”, on which decisions needed to be made at this time. The methodology proposed was as follows. Commissioners were advised that if they were happy to approve the proposed sections of deliverance they need take no action.
