On 10 June 2021 the General Church Board resolved to conduct the Convention of General Synod partly online.

After making every effort to hold the Convention by the usual means, ongoing uncertainty about travel restrictions, exacerbated by the recent lockdown in Victoria and its potential flow-on impact in parts of Queensland and New South Wales, meant the time had come to make the very difficult call on a COVID contingency plan.

Taking into account the extraordinary circumstances relating to COVID-19, the GCB unanimously agreed to hold the 20th regular Convention of General Synod in two parts:

• an online meeting in early October 2021, which will then be adjourned until
• the meeting resumes in-person at a location to be determined in September or October 2022.
