IF the Catholic Church is serious about its response to child sex abuse, then it must get rid of Cardinal George Pell.

Pell is expected in Australia this month to face the child sexual abuse royal commission.

His presence here is a start, but it isn’t enough. Nothing less than the defrocking of Australia’s most senior church member will indicate the church is a fully reformed beast.

No one action can fully compensate victims, but the downfall of Pell — the third-most powerful Catholic in the Vatican — would bring a certain quiet satisfaction to many.

One of the big problems is that Pell continues to keep his head in the sand.
