At least 900 people are expected to attend a conference in Dublin today which aims to plot a way forward for the Catholic Church here.
The event’s main organiser is the Association of Catholic Priests, which has been at the centre of controversy in recent weeks

The principal organiser, Fr Tony Flannery, will not be speaking because he has been silenced by the Vatican and ordered to spend six weeks praying and reflecting on some of his writings, which Rome consider unorthodox.
