The Herald-Sun’s Andrew Bolt is one of many to comment negatively on today’s story that “The Anglican Church wants Australians to have fewer children and has urged the federal government to scrap the baby bonus and cut immigration levels.” (AAP report via The Sydney Morning Herald.)

While the report may give the impression it is official Anglican policy, after enquiries, the ACL website has not yet found any source for such a statement.

Update: Thanks to Kevin Goddard for tracking down a related document.
And Andrew Bolt interviewed Professor John Langmore, Anglican Public Affairs Commission Chairman, on Melbourne radio 3MTR, starting at the 18’36” point of this mp3 file.
