They were dismissed by a council of senior bishops after two members said their work was obstructed.

"The Archbishops’ Council confirmed it was “ending the contracts” of all three board members - acting chair Meg Munn, Jasvinder Sanghera and Steve Reeves.

The latter two recently claimed the Church had been obstructive and interfered with their work."

    Does the Church think it is doing itself any favors by firing the people hired to resolve their culture of abuse and protection of abusers? I realize that historically the Church has been able to ignore the issue until people get distracted by something more immediate to their lives, but with the rise of social media and the decline in religious attendance/practice, I would think this behaviour would only further weaken the Church.

    Quote from article:

    Ms Sanghera and Mr Reeves claimed in April the Church had refused to share data with them and denied them their own computers, according to the Telegraph.

    They told the newspaper there had been “clear interference” with their work and described working with church officials as “an uphill battle”.

    They had also objected to the appointment of Ms Munn, who also holds a position within the Church.
