[Anglican Journal] 5 July 2007--General Synod members voted to send a message to the Anglican Consultative Council (ACC) that adding all Anglican primates (national bishops) to the membership of the ACC, one of the four instruments of unity of the Anglican Communion, would be an unwelcome change.

The proposed constitutional changes to the ACC’s membership, offered to all Anglican provinces of the worldwide communion for ratification, included a section requesting that ACC membership should include all the primates and moderators of the 38 provinces of the Anglican Communion, as ex-officio members.
