District Church Council

District Church Council (DCC) is the governance body for the Victoria – Tasmania District. Three sub-committees to the Council were established, arising from an administrative review, to provide additional advice to the Council for decision-making purposes. The three sub-committees are:

  • Compliance and Risk
  • Finance and Administration
  • People and Strategy.

District Church Council discusses and approves the major financial and policy decisions that impact the Victoria – Tasmania District.
