	Review of Safeguarding Practice in the Diocese of Kilmore Undertaken by the National Board for Safeguarding Children in the Catholic Church Roman Catholic Diocese of Kilmore November 30, 2011 http://www.kilmorediocese.ie/images/safeguardin_documents/KILMORE_FINAL_REPORT_PDF.pdf Background This report examines current practice with regard to the safeguarding of children in the Diocese of Kilmore. It is based on the examination of all existing case files, supporting documentation supplied by the bishop, guidance and policy documents produced by the diocese itself and a series of interviews with diocesan safeguarding staff, including Bishop O'Reilly himself. The overall view of current practice is that it is of a consistently high standard. In many respects, the Diocese of Kilmore may be viewed as a model of best practice within the Church in this critical area. To a significant extent, this is seen as a consequence of the personal commitment and diligence of Bishop O'Reilly who demonstrated a willingness to lead others and to address safeguarding concerns when they arose. For this he should be commended.
