1996 Discipline ¶ 820

820. The Temporary General Aid Fund--The council shall recommend to the General Conference, either as a separate apportioned general fund or as a part of another apportioned general fund, the sum that the Church shall undertake for the purpose of providing grants-in-aid for pensions and minimum salaries to those annual and missionary conferences that qualify under a formula adopted by the General Conference. The purpose of this fund is to assist in raising the level of pensions and minimum salaries in conferences that have merged with conferences of the former Central Jurisdiction. In consultation with the General Commission on Religion and Race, the pension portion of this fund is to be administered by the General Board of Pension and Health Benefits, and the minimum salary portion by the council (see ¶ 2008.16). The distribution of fund receipts is to be made by the council in accordance with formulas approved by the General Conference.
