To say this matter is exclusively the responsibility of the State because it did not properly police the system is like blaming the Garda for burglary. While there was fallibility on behalf of the State and a lack of supervision, the acts of abuse were, nevertheless, the responsibility of the religious orders and they should face up to this. It would be a pity if changes to the process resulted in victims not being able to tell their stories or express themselves, which was the reason the commission was established. It is for this reason that a system of sampling would not work.
