Yesterday the National Board for Safeguarding Children in the Catholic Church in Ireland published its audit on a number of dioceses and regligious congregations in the country.
It is now recognised that the Catholic Church is in the vanguard in putting in place safe practice when it comes to dealing with children
Dioceses and religious congregations have published their response to the audit.
It would seem that many of the responses have been taken from a general template. At least that's the impression given when one reads through them.
One bishop tells his readers that "The report is complementary yet it still is a work in progress".
Another bishop insists on upper casing his title 'Bishop' every time he writes it, indeed, the same man talks about his 'Ordination Day'.
Elsewhere readers are told that it is the job of priests to be the 'protectors' of children.
