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.
