From the BYM budgeting process to Islamaphobia

BYM Budget process

Northumbria Area Meeting’s minute brought a concern about Britain Yearly Meeting’s (BYM) budgeting process. They believe ‘there is an ambiguity [in Church Government] about who actually decides on how much money is spent in various areas on behalf of BYM’. The minute asks Sufferings to ‘consider passing the issue to Church Government Advisory Group for their discernment’. This was done.
