Decision Number 813

Decision

Based on Par. 611.3(c) of the 1996 Discipline, Bishop Neil L. Irons properly ruled that the challenge to the action of the Annual Conference in placing Item E.9. Conference Program in the Connectional Ministries Budget is upheld, with the exception that E.9.b. Capital Funds for Camp Properties, and E.9.c. Wesley Foundation should be retained in their present location in the Budget; which means that only E.9.a. Program would be placed in the Benevolence Budget. The bishop is affirmed in the ruling.
