- That the Statement of Introduction to the Motion on the Sexuality Report be accepted. The Statement reads as follows:
- "The documents on human sexuality are commended to the Church by the National Executive Council.
- The House of Bishops is clear that these documents do not have official approval. They are not agreed doctrinal or ethical statements. The Bishops are aware that some opinions quoted may be perceived as calling into question some commonly held views of the Christian position on this subject.
- The documents are instruments to help members of the Church to understand human sexuality at greater depth in the light of scripture, tradition and reason, which are of the ethos of Anglicanism." CARRIED #17-9-85
