[EV News] 7 Feb 2008--The Anglican Communion Covenant Design Group under the chairmanship of Drexel Gomez has issued a new draft of the proposed Anglican Covenant.
The first version was contained in the Windsor Report.The Covenant Design Group then produced a first draft which was circulated last year.
The revised draft is the result of responses received.The General Synod of the Church of England passed the job of responding to the Archbishops and their submission is due to be considered by Synod next week. It will be a curious debate if it is not changed because the matter has moved on.
A number of liberal dominated provinces, including the Church of England, produced submissions which would have severely weakened the initial Covenant and at least this new draft does not seem to have given too much ground in that direction. However, the whole thing still remains entirely inadequate to meet the needs of the hour.
