Bishops’ office and working costs published
9 December 2005
The 2004 office and working costs of bishops in the Church of England are published today. Figures for individual bishops were first published, for the year 2000, in December 2001. Bishops’ office and working costs were previously published as a total figure.
In 2004, the Church Commissioners funded the ministry of Church of England bishops by some £14.4 million, figures from the House of Bishops show. Of that sum, £4.3m related to stipends, National Insurance and pension contributions for the 44 diocesan and 69 suffragan/full-time assistant bishops. The remaining £10.1m related to bishops’ office and working costs, most of which pays for the salaries and pensions of office staff.
The figures are available direct from this website.
