Dr. Furse moved that no resolution, under which divorced persons who have remarried during the lifetime of their former spouses may be admitted to Holy Communion, shall be acted upon until the Canon Law and the relevant parts of the Book of Common Prayer have been amended by Canon-Law, made under licence from the Crown.
