Canon 111

1. The synod of bishops of the patriarchal Church designates

the manner and time of promulgation of laws and the publication

of decisions. 2. The observance of secrecy regarding acts or

cases treated is to be decided upon by the synod of bishops of

the patriarchal Church, with due regard for the obligation of

observing secrecy in matters established by common law. 3.

Acts regarding laws and decisions are to be sent to the Roman

Pontiff as soon as possible; certain acts or even all of them

should be communicated to the patriarchs of the other Eastern

Churches according to the judgment of the synod.
