Clause 9
CLOSURE AND
DISSOLUTION
9.1 Any resolution to close the Church must
be passed by the Church Meeting and approved by the
appropriate wider council of the URC. When approved the resolution will have
the effect of dissolving the Church as an association, at the date agreed
between the Local Church and the Synod.
9.2 A direction may be given by the Church
Meeting for unrestricted monies held as part of the general funds of the Church
to be applied after the satisfaction of debts and liabilities, in a specific
manner determined by the Church Meeting (within the charitable objects set out
in the relevant trust instrument).
9.3 If no such direction is given the Church
Meeting shall be deemed to have directed the trustees to apply the unrestricted monies held as part of the
general funds of the Church, after the satisfaction of debts and liabilities,
as determined (within the charitable objects set out in the relevant trust
instrument) by the Synod.
