The General Secretariat is made up of: five lay people coming from five Forum Member Countries which are elected every four years and which reflect CA’s diversity. These five members nominate the Secretariat Coordinator from among themselves. The Secretariat Coordinator chooses the Secretary and the Administrator from outside the members of the Secretariat.
These become members of the General Secretariat but have no right to vote.
The five elected members, the Secretary and the Administrator make up the General Secretariat.
The Ecclesiastical Assistant is part of the Secretariat.
