Target: Revision Committee for Legislation to enable Women to be Appointed to the Episcopate

Petition text:
We, the lay members of the Church of England, support having women as bishops on the same basis as men are bishops and we urge the Revision Committee to prepare the draft legislation with a code of practice, as requested by General Synod in July 2008, in time for General Synod in February 2010.
