Bertie Ahern (Dublin Central, Fianna Fail)

The Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform will bring forward proposals in the coming weeks on an inquiry into child abuse in the Dublin diocese. We have already stated a national audit must take place in other dioceses. The Minister of State at the Department of Justice, Equality and Law Reform, Deputy Brian Lenihan, is writing to diocesan authorities on this matter.
