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.”
