Each Reviewer has been allocated to specific region.
Where a minister books a review with a Reviewer in the same region as them the fee for a ministry review is $20.00 per hour.
Where a minister chooses a Reviewer from outside of their region, the fee is $40.00 per hour.
Where a minister chooses a Reviewer from outside of their region and the distance is such that air travel is required, the Reviewer may also seek reimbursement of their flight costs.
Where a minister chooses a private reviewer who is not a Presbyterian Church Reviewer they must demonstrate to their presbytery that the reviewer is competent to conduct reviews and has used a system substantially similar to the Ministry Development Framework.
Where the minister is in a parish, their parish is responsible for the first $20.00 per hour.
This means that where a minister chooses a Reviewer outside their region or a private reviewer the minister is responsible for fees over and above the first $20.00 per hour, including the cost of flights where this is required.
Please refer to the Ministry Development Programme booklet for more information for ministers not currently serving in a parish.
