Bishop Walsh paid tribute to Mr Justice Frank Murphy and his inquiry team for their painstaking work, but he also acknowledged the courage of those who came forward to recount their horrific stories of sexual abuse at the hands of some 21 priests in the diocese over the past 40 years.
Bishop Walsh said the report clearly highlighted the various experiences of those who were abused, including the fear of not being believed; being manipulated into thinking it was their fault; being angry towards those who may have had knowledge and did nothing, as well as possible permanent damage to their relationship with God.
Bishop Walsh also paid tribute to those still serving priests of the diocese for "their continued faithful service to the parishioners amidst the horror and the sorrow of discovering that some of their fellow priests had caused such dreadful suffering to innocent children".
