Convocation and Church authority debate in the Commons
Members argued over the role of Convocation in church matters and the preamble of a bill. Gladstone defended ministerial authority while critics warned against sacerdotal influence and sought to limit or omit references to Convocation. The bill eventually passed after divisions and progress.
