The Catholic Institute

TCI Council

Members of the Catholic Institute of Aotearoa New Zealand Council are appointed by the NZ Council of Catholic Bishops. Appointments are guided by the trust deed that formed the Institute and are for a three year period.  An effort is made to balance appointments from all Dioceses, race and gender having regard to the particular spread of expertise the Council is seeking to help govern the Institute. The Council is responsible to the Bishops of New Zealand.
