House of Lords: Prayers
Debate between Lord Brabazon of Tara and Earl of Sandwich
The Chairman of Committees
The noble Lord is absolutely right. I tried to give that impression in an answer I gave earlier.
The Earl of Sandwich
My Lords, may I suggest to the Chairman of Committees that we introduce variety in the Collects? There is a wonderful range of Cranmer Collects. Could he say how the committee represents the church's views? Is there a permanent member of the committee from the church?
The Chairman of Committees
My Lords, the noble Earl wrote to me about the possibility of using different Collects. I have the matter in hand and I will come back to him in due course, after I have consulted the Bench of Bishops.
