He said that if confirmations were taken by the bishop of the diocese in which the base is located, closer ties with the dioceses could be established. Bishop Hatton said that Anglicans who live on bases are concerned about the remote possibility of being elected as members of diocesan, Provincial or General Synods.

He told the bishops that the document has gone to General Synod members and is to be dealt with at the information dialogue on June 16th as part of the Doctrine and Worship dialogue.

- one God, for ever and ever. Amen."
