| Bishop Donal Murray Criticised in Murphy Report |
There has been no official comment, but the Bishop told parishioners yesterday he was 'reflecting on the decision he now has to make'.
On Saturday Cardinal Sean Brady called on all named in the Murphy Report to act soon in light of the Commission's findings that cover-ups of clerical child abuse had taken place in the Dublin Archdiocese.
Cardinal Brady is due to travel to the Vatican next week to discuss the Murphy Report with Pope Benedict.
Cardinal Brady will be accompanied by Archbishop Diarmuid Martin.
