A committee of the Archbishops' Council, constituted under Regulation 15 of the Ecclesiastical Offices (Terms of Service) Regulations 2009, considered objections to the Church Commissioners' published plans to accommodate the incoming Bishop of Bath and Wells in the Old Rectory, Croscombe, rather than in the palace at Wells. This was the first time that this procedure had been used; the committee found for the objectors and directed that the Commissioners' transaction should not proceed. A fuller comment on this case by Frank Cranmer and David Pocklington is printed above at pp 335–339. [Frank Cranmer]
