Peter Hollingworth ‘surprised’ by police review

From Australia-


FORMER governor-general Peter Hollingworth says he is yet to be approached by police, who are looking into claims he failed to act on sexual abuse allegations. 

His comments came after Queensland police said they were reviewing allegations against Dr Hollingworth.

The matter relates to claims Dr Hollingworth failed to act on sexual abuse allegations against priests and teaching staff in the 1990s, when he was Anglican archbishop of Brisbane.

“We have received information with respect to the matter,” a Queensland Police Service spokesman told News Corp Australia.
