Administrative history
The Association was preceded by the Sub-Committee re Administration of the Wine, which was established in 1917 as a sub-committee of the Sydney Anglican Synod, and as a response to the influenza epidemic of the time. The object of the Sub-Committee was to investigate the law of the Church of England in regard to individual administration of communion wine as opposed to a common Communion Cup. In 1921 the Sub-Committee had been replaced by The Individual Cup Association which supported the use of individual cups. The records held are incomplete and relate to the issue being debated.
