The man co-ordinating the Catholic Church’s response to the royal commission into child sex abuse visited Wollongong this week.
Francis Sullivan, chief executive of The Truth, Justice and Healing Council, met Bishop Peter Ingham, clergy, religious school principals, and employees of the Catholic Education Office, CatholicCare and Office of the Bishop.
Mr Sullivan walked through the process of the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse and “gave an understanding of the public and private hearings”.
“This is our opportunity not to let down people who have been damaged by the Church,” Mr Sullivan said.
Bishop Ingham again apologised to anyone in the diocese “who has been harmed”.
