Cloyne priests yet to discuss report
A spokesperson for Dr Dermot Clifford, the Apostolic Administrator of Cloyne, yesterday blamed holiday arrangements for the decision not to hold the meeting until September.
Confirmation that the meeting will eventually take place next month came on foot of criticism of Dr Clifford for failing to call clergy together to discuss the report which found two-thirds of clerical sex abuse allegations made in the diocese between 1996-2009 were not passed on to gardaí, as required by the Church’s guidelines.
