The Hunter’s Catholic church will today host two public information sessions to discuss the Royal Commission into child sexual abuse.

Four days of private hearings began in Newcastle yesterday, with 32 local abuse survivors giving evidence.

Today’s information sessions will allow the community to speak with Francis Sullivan, the CEO of the church’s ‘Truth, Justice and Healing Council’.

Mr Sullivan said it is important people get to hear from the church organisation that is responding to the Royal Commission.

“The community want the Catholic church to tell the truth, to reveal what happened,” he said.
