Synodal Commissions

For the study and formulation of proposals on matters to be submitted for deliberation, The Holy Synod elects, from among its members, four synodal commissions. Each commission is chaired by a metropolitan and has a rapporteur. The other metropolitans serve as co-chairs of the commissions to which they are assigned by the Holy Synod.
