Galway Diocese has confirmed that a safeguarding issue is being investigated.

Bishop Martin Drennan has granted leave of absence of parochial duties to a priest while the investigation is ongoing.

In a statement, Galway Diocese says that the decision of the priest to step aside pending the outcome of the investigation ‘accords with diocesan policy in such matters.’

It’s understood the city parish has been informed of the decision.

Anyone with information or concerns about the safeguarding of children should contact the Diocesan Designated Persons, the HSE or Gardai.
