IRELAND -- Survivors of clerical abuse have demanded leadership and accountability from Pope Benedict as Irish Bishops prepared for a major Vatican summit over the devastating scandals.

The 24 senior clergymen will take part in unprecedented two-day talks after being hauled before the Pontiff over the sexual abuse revelations that have rocked the Irish church.

John Kelly, of the Survivors of Child Abuse support group, said they want Pope Benedict to take firm action to restore the church in Ireland and provide proper financial compensation to victims.
