One in Four is adding its voice to calls for the Bishop of Cloyne to resign after a report found that child abuse allegations in the Cork diocese were not dealt with properly.

The National Board for the Safeguarding of Children's Report found that child protection practices in the dioceses of Cloyne were inadequate and in some respects dangerous.

One in Four - the national charity which supports men and women who have experienced sexual violence - says his position is now untenable.

Executive Director Maeve Lewis says the Catholic Church can not be trusted to put the safety of children first.
