The Seattle Archdiocese has consolidated two expert panels -- one examining child sex abuse allegations, the other looking at relevant Catholic Church policies -- into a single board of doctors, clerics, legal experts and educators who will continue to monitor the diocese's handling of child sexual abuse complaints.

Archbishop Alex Brunett appointed seven members to the new Archdiocesan Review Board, including Lucy Berliner, director of the Center for Sexual Assault and Traumatic Stress at Harborview Medical Center. The confidential, advisory board will review all polices and procedures related to clergy sexual abuse of minors, said Greg Magnoni, a spokesman for the archdiocese.
