- Prologue
- This Conference:
- 1. Reaffirms its unity in the historical position of respect for diocesan boundaries and the authority of bishops within these boundaries; and in the light of the above
- 2. Affirms that it is deemed inappropriate behaviour for any bishop of this Communion to exercise episcopal ministry within another diocese without first obtaining the permission and invitation of the episcopal authority thereof.
- Text of motion
- That this House reaffirm paragraphs 1. and 2. with the word "Ecclesial" being changed to "Episcopal." CARRIED
