Cloyne: Monsignor admits he should have resigned

Monsignor Denis O'Callaghan - who was responsible for child protection in the diocese of Cloyne - has admitted that he should have resigned as a child protection delegate.

In a letter to the Irish Catholic newspaper Monsignor O'Callaghan - who was Bishop John Magee's number two - said he should not have stayed on in a job where he disagreed with the child protection guidelines he was supposed to enforce.
