We all have a role to play in migration crisis: Bishop of Limerick

The Bishop of Limerick has urged the State, the Church, and groups around the country to work together in order to play a more meaningful role in the current migration crisis in Europe.

Bishop Brendan Leahy said we all need to have the courage to look at what role we could play in helping people in tremendous need.

He also felt a wider strategic review needs to take place in relation to our handling of asylum seekers generally, with facilities and conditions here falling way below acceptable standards.
