Decision Number 1008

Decision

The Clergy Retirement Security Program (CRSP) as adopted by the 2004 General Conference as Petition 40325 (Calendar Item 1031) is constitutional insofar as §§ A16(d), A3.4(b), B3.3, A3.4(t) and A4.16 (CRSP) are concerned and may be implemented by the General Board of Pension and Health Benefits on January 1, 2007. Section A5.1(b)(iii) is unconstitutional due to being an improper delegation of the legislative authority of the General Conference.


Shamwange P. Kyungu was absent. C. Rex Bevins, the first clergy alternate, participated in this decision.
