Cardinal’s position not sustainable: Burton
Joan Burton has pointed to how “highly educated” Cardinal Brady was and how he “held a position in a school” and so should have realised the gravity of the allegations made to him by Brendan Boland in the secret inquiry in 1975.
Speaking on RTÉ Radio, Ms Burton said: “He was a man in his middle 30s at the time who was a doctor of divinity. You could say at that stage that people like that were tremendously naive. But he was highly educated. He also held a position in a school.
