17. The Rev Stephen Gabbott asked -

In the event of a conference being called by the Archbishop to discuss matters related to agenda items 8(4), 8(5) and 8(6) on the Synod business paper for 14 October 1997, with whom does he intend discussing the planning and implementation of such a conference?

To which the President replied -

The question is out of order under Standing Order 27 because it asks for a disclosure of future intentions. The matter is however under consideration.
