1964 Nov 196-	The Hands of the Cause of God met in the Holy Land for a period of 14 days to discuss their vital responsibilities, and particularly as Standard-Bearers of the Nine Year Plan. The Universal House of Justice consulted with them on the Ridván 1964 goal of the “Development of the Institution of the Hands of the Cause of God, in consultation with the body of the Hands of the Cause, with a view to the extension into the future of its appointed functions of protection and propagation.” Communications between the National Spiritual Assemblies with the Hands of the Cause and their Board members was encouraged in whatever way proved to be effective. They should be invited to attend the National Convention or to send one or two Board members as deputies. Auxiliary Board members should be freed from administrative responsibilities and as delegates. Should a Board member be elected to an NSA he/she would be able to choose which role to accept. An increase in the number of Auxiliary Board members will be required along with an increase in the Continental Funds.
