Dublin Archbishop 'ashamed' of church
The Archbishop of Dublin said there are groups in the Vatican and the Irish hierarchy trying to undermine child protection measures.
Speaking on RTE on Wednesday, Dr Diarmuid Martin said there were systems in place that were ignored.
His comments come after Irish Prime Minister Enda Kenny launched an attack in parliament on the Catholic Church. Mr Kenny said the recent Cloyne Report into allegations of priest sex abuse showed change was needed.
