Bishop of Lincoln Christopher Lowson suspended from office
from BBC News:
The Bishop of Lincoln, Christopher Lowson, has been suspended.
The Archbishop of Canterbury acted saying it was in relation to a safeguarding children inquiry.
Justin Welby added that “if proven” he would consider the bishop “would present a significant risk of harm by not adequately safeguarding children and vulnerable people”.
Bishop Lowson said he was “bewildered” by the suspension and would cooperate fully.
In a statement, the archbishop continued: “I would like to make it absolutely clear that there has been no allegation that Bishop Christopher has committed abuse of a child or vulnerable adult.”
