The OSCR said it continued to engage on the matter but could not comment further due to ongoing inquiry work.

Bishop Dyer was suspended by the Scottish Episcopal Church as the Bishop of Aberdeen and Orkney in 2022, following claims of bullying.

These are currently being investigated by the Church, with its senior lawyer considering whether they should be heard by a tribunal.

Bishop Dyer has denied these allegations, saying she has faced “significant bullying and harassment” since taking up the role in 2018.

The investigation followed an independent review carried out by Prof Iain Torrance.

It warned of “systemic dysfunction” in the diocese and recommended that Bishop Dyer should step back permanently.
