United Synagogue leaders have expressed "full support" for the Chief Rabbi's latest statement on partnership minyanim.

But Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis's letter - to rabbis and rebbetzens under his auspices - was also hailed as a positive step forward within the partnership minyanim movement.

The JC contacted 32 Orthodox ministers to gauge individual opinion to the Chief Rabbi's latest intervention.

None of them expressed opposition to the letter, but few were willing to comment publicly.
