Commission of Investigation Report into the Catholic Diocese of Cloyne: Motion

 

In asking Senators to consider my amendment, I ask them to approach the matter in a spirit of honesty and realise that those of us who seek full clarity, to develop issues and add to the motion we believe to be deficient in some way are in no sense apologists, as has been implied. We simply believe the truth - the full truth - will set us free and that nothing should be said in this House today that will take from the anger we must all feel over any failure to protect children, be it at an institutional or hierarchical level or on foot of the ordinary failures of people to point out and report what they needed to report.
