Physical description: 1 file
Immediate source of acquisition: These papers were created by the commission but there are no records for who deposited them at the Church of England Record Centre, or when this happened. At CERC they were grouped with other Archbishops' Commissions to form the artificial fonds CERC: AC. These catalogue entries were migrated from the records management sytem in September 2012 and the records moved to Lambeth Palace Library when the two institutions combined in 2021.
Administrative / biographical background: The commission seems to have been apopinted in response to the report by the Archbishops' Commission on Diocesan Organisation in Greater London. It further investigated splitting the Diocese of London into 5 areas each with area bishops. Some of this work seems to have overlapped with work by the Dioceses Commission.
