In his article ‘Faith not Charity’ (27 August) Bob Johnson comments upon how our structure with trustees poses a threat to our important process of wide consultation to find unity before action.

Reading the Interim Report of the Review Group (for Sufferings and the Trustees) it is hard to find a coherent pattern of organisation in the structure of the Yearly Meeting. The heart of the problem seems to be what to do with Meeting for Sufferings now that, with the appointment of trustees, its role of governance (Quaker faith & practice 7.02) has been taken over and its role as the principal channel of communication from Local Meetings to Yearly Meeting, is questioned (report section 5.2).
