An ABC broadcaster in Perth, who was the victim of a paedophile, says the announcement of a Royal Commission into sex abuse at Australian institutions has been long overdue.
Eoin Cameron was repeatedly raped by the head Brother at the Marist College in Mt Gambier, in South Australia, when he was a student there in the 1960s.
He received an apology and compensation for the abuse but renounced his Catholicism when he recently discovered the man who abused him was honoured for services to the Church.
Mr Cameron is encouraging anyone who suffered abuse to step forward.
