Church leaders to discuss abuse scandal with Pope
Friday, 5 June 2009
Irish Catholic Church leaders are due to meet the Pope this evening for talks on the child abuse scandal.
Cardinal Sean Brady and Archbishop Diarmuid Martin are travelling to Rome to discuss the fallout from the Ryan Report with Pope Benedict XVI.
Yesterday, the 18 religious orders involved in institutional child abuse agreed to a full audit of their assets and to make further contributions to victims.
They also agreed to meet the Taoiseach, Brian Cowen, for further talks in two weeks time.
