Church policy on reporting abuse

Sir, – Further to “Vatican denies change in abuse reporting policy” (February 12th), any truly Christian church should not only unequivocally practise mandatory reporting of clerical sexual abuse to civic authorities, but should campaign for it worldwide. Diarmuid Martin might institute a mission to the Vatican to that end. – Yours, etc,
