The following are Extracts
from a submission by Patrick Parkinson to the Royal Commission on
Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse. Issues Paper 11
In this submission,, Patrick Parkinson says that “It would be easy to write the problems off as a few ‘bad apples’; however, the problems that have brought the Church to the very edge of disaster and beyond, trashing its reputation as a moral leader, were never just because of a few bad apples. The problems were institutional and cultural.”
