    A +ve for WTBTS. Apostates will have less fuel for the fire, with regard to forcible refurbishments and the pricing thereof. Now there is less transparency with regard to there business practices.

    On the -ve for the KH. I think this new financing structure is going to cause the opposite problem of now trying to get the KH money back when a refurbishment or quick build is genuinely needed. Especially if the money is been used for other purposes - which Im guessing it is as they become more squeezed for money. I honestly believe gone are the days of forcible refurbishments and quick builds with this new funding strategy.

    "New ""donation"" arrangement? I must have missed something. What do they want bank details now?

    I disagree. The WTS doesn't want their tax free asset base losing its capital value. Just the opposite, they are going to force upgrades and refurbs as strictly or more so than in the past.

    and with every improvement comes a "suggested" donation increase by the CO, who now has the power to oust any non-conforrming elder(s).

    The reality is, donation arrangement or not, if your cong's donation isn't where its required to be the CO will make sure the body knows it.
