FINANCES in the Church of Ireland have improved dramatically
since the financial crisis of 2007, the General Synod was told by
the chairman of the Representative Church Body, Robert
Neill (Glendalough).
Financial assets alone amount to more than €550 million, and
general funds had recovered to €161 million after €20 million had
been transferred to clergy pension funds, and €45 million was paid
out in overheads.
