Consultation opens on the next Archbishop of Canterbury

Posted on Monday 2 April 2012
Announcements in the church and national press have started the consultation process ahead of consideration by the Crown Nominations Commission as to who will follow Dr Rowan Williams.

This is the first time the process for nominating a new Archbishop of Canterbury has begun with such an announcement, following changes to introduce more transparency in the appointment of bishops.

The Most Revd and Rt Hon Dr Rowan Williams will be stepping down from the office of the Archbishop of Canterbury on 31st December 2012.

Any person wishing to comment on the challenges and opportunities that should be taken in to account in considering the appointment of his successor or who wishes to propose candidates should email, by Monday 30th April, to abc.vacancy@churchofengland.org
