Petitions & Resolutions

These pages contain all information about petitions submitted by groups and individuals to the 2000 General Conference and action that was taken on them. At this time, there is no way to search by "what was passed" mostly because of the legislation process. Committees make recommendations (nonconcurrence, concurrence, and concurrence with amendments). Those recommendations are either supported or not supported by the Plenary Session, so there is no easy way to compile a list of petitions that resulted in changes. You can however, track any petition or calendar item all the way through the legislative process.

Also, keep in mind that the Plenary Session often changes the wording of the recommendation of the committee (the Majority Report) before supporting the item. Therefore, the information you see in the "calendar item text" section may not be what will be reflected in the 2000 Book of Discipline.
