Cloyne used radio windfall to help pay abuse bills
The €134,000 that local parishes made from their investment in North Cork Community Radio co-op (NCCR) was released in 2006 following a 10-year battle with tax authorities.
It has now emerged that, at the request of Bishop John Magee, the parishes that helped establish the NCCR co-op in 1989 agreed to donate the proceeds to a new child protection fund.
