Deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness has accused the Vatican of “miserably failing” the victims of child sexual abuse.
He said the failings of Rome were a greater issue than the position of Cardinal Sean Brady.
Mr McGuinness told the Assembly that he loved the Catholic church but that Catholics throughout Ireland were “dismayed and angry”.
The cardinal is accused of failing to act over abuse allegations in 1975.
