Minister to publish HSE child-protection audit
Wednesday, 7 January 2009
A HSE audit of child protection measures in Ireland's Catholic dioceses today is expected to be published later today by Children's Minister Barry Andrews.
Mr Andrews is also expected to announce a special commission to investigate child protection in the diocese of Cloyne.
A recent report by the Catholic Church's National Board for Safeguarding Children was highly critical of the handling of clerical sex abuse allegations in the diocese.
The Bishop of Cloyne, John Magee, has faced widespread calls for his resignation on foot of the report, but has so far refused to stand down.
