Convening a Professional Standards Board
Generally, the President of the Board convenes a board consisting of either the President or Deputy President, and a clergy person and a lay person, each appointed by the President from the panel: extract from the Act
A single member, appointed by the President, can constitute the Board for a matter that does not involve sexual abuse.
