…and it seems that there is a vacancy on the Church of England’s Audit Committee, as an appointee of the Archbishops’ Council.
As I am currently a member of the Southwark Diocesan Board of Finance, and its Audit Committee, I think I’m reasonably well-qualified to do that job nationally. But, I’m already over-meetinged.
I think, on balance, that I won’t apply, but, boy, is it tempting. In three or four years’ time, there will be elections to General Synod and I think I would rather aim for a seat in General Synod if I’m going to take on more committee work. In that instance I would probably resign from the DBF and Audit Committee, and perhaps as Lay Chair of the Deanery (if I still hold those offices in four years).
Decisions, decisions.
