The House of Lords yesterday approved plans to allow women to become bishops in the Church of England.
The proposal was passed by the General Synod in July but required the consent of Parliament. It is expected to be agreed in the House of Commons next week.
In his speech before peers, Archbishop Justin Welby commended the proposal as "a change of historical significance".
