Survivors of child sexual abuse are crowdfunding to send
representatives to Rome to hear Australia’s most senior Catholic,
cardinal George Pell, give evidence before a child sex abuse royal commission via video link from 29 February.
Earlier this month Pell was cleared to give evidence about child sex abuse that occurred within Ballarat parishes while he was an assistant priest at Ballarat East via video rather than in person. The chair of the royal commission into institutional responses into child sexual abuse, justice Peter McClellan, made the ruling.
