The findings of the official inquiry into the handling of clerical abuse allegations in the Dublin Archdiocese are expected to be presented to the Minister for Justice today.

The inquiry was established three years ago to investigate how the church authorities handled and responded to allegations of sexual abuse between 1975 and 2004.

Its report is expected to include more shocking revelations about clerical child sex abuse following the recent Ryan Report and the 2005 report into abuse in the Ferns diocese.

It is unclear when the Dublin findings will be published, with Minister Dermot Ahern expected to consult the Attorney General as the report is believed to deal with three men currently before the courts.

It is believed to name a total of 15 priests, 11 of whom have been convicted of abuse.
