The post Vatican II Church (under the New Canon Law of 1983)already allows Non-Catholics to receive communion under certain circumstances:

Contrast it with the Canon Law of 1917:

Canon 731.2

It is forbidden that the Sacraments of the Church be ministered to heretics and schismatics, even if they ask for them and are in good faith, unless beforehand, rejecting their errors, they are reconciled with the Church.

There is a reason for that ruling, because of the common baptism done in the other Christian churches that the Catholic Church accepts as valid baptism.
