Religious orders must take abuse responsibility

I am writing in relation to the point made by religious orders recently in your paper, when they said that accepting a 50:50 share of the Redress Bill would imply they are all to blame for abuse.

Nobody in their right mind would believe that, or believe that every sister or brother was involved. But the orders have to take responsibility.

This negotiation process is just another way of dragging things out and dragging the survivors through the muck.
