List of Church of England Measures
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is a list of Church of England Measures, which are the legislation of the Church of England. Since 1970, Measures have been made by the General Synod; prior to then they were made by its predecessor, the Church Assembly. Under the Church of England Assembly (Powers) Act 1919 (9 & 10 Geo. 5 c. 76), Measures have the same force as an Act of Parliament.
As of July 2010[update] there were 124 Measures passed and unrepealed.
