Cardinal on spiritual time out continues to draw salary

Cardinal Archbishop of Cologne Rainer Maria Woelki, who is currently on a six-month 'spiritual time-out’, in other words suspension, for his mishandling of clerical child sex abuse cases, continues to receive his salary.

According to German Spiegel magazine the archbishop’s salary works out at €13,800 per month. It’s a similar salary to that paid to a city mayor.
