Abstract

The single most important piece of legislative business considered by the Synod in 2010 was, of course, the draft legislation relating to women in the episcopate. Having been given First Consideration by the Synod in February 2009, the draft legislation was the subject of detailed consideration by a Revision Committee between May 2009 and April 2010. The Revision Committee received 297 submissions, of which 114 were from individual Synod members or groups including Synod members and others. In consequence, it met on 16 occasions and its report ran to 142 pages.
