For reasons unknown my previous thread was closed, however Joe Offer maintained that just 2 members of the Catholic clergy were involved.

The report I read on the BBC News suggested a figure of 49 members of the clergy.

One of the factors that has allowed such abuse to continue unsuppressed is the opposition to open debate of the issue.

The article on the BBC was published on the 18th July perhaps someone would provide a link, doing on my android is nigh on impossible.

Thanks
