FORMER governor-general Peter Hollingworth has apologised for the Anglican church’s failure to protect children from two pedophiles at a Brisbane school and the handling of complaints when he was archbishop.

Dr Hollingworth read his lengthy prepared apology to the child abuse royal commission before being grilled about the promotion of the school principal who hired both of the pedophiles.

“I am appalled by the abuse you suffered at the hands of two school staff members from St Paul’s School,” Dr Hollingworth said.
