Cardinal Sean Brady was surprised people were offended over his backing of Bishop John Magee, found to have mishandled child sex abuse allegations, he said.

The Catholic Primate also said he was sorry people were upset by his insistence that the Bishop of Cloyne should not resign because of the scandal.

The Cardinal again signalled he wants Bishop Magee to remain on and accept responsibility for the Church's response to the clerical paedophilia claims in Co Cork. "I was very sorry that people - that I offended people by what I said," the Cardinal said.
