Proceeding contribution from Gordon Brown (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 3 July 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Constitutional Reform.


Constitutional Reform

I am grateful to my hon. Friend. The important role that he plays as a Church Commissioner is reflected in his contribution today. At the same time as he has been commenting on these issues, there has been full consultation, where possible, with the Church of England. I have met the Archbishop of York, the Government have been in touch with the Archbishop of Canterbury, and I hope that we can proceed with the changes by consensus. I know that they reflect the views of many in the House.
