The Catholic Bishop of Armidale says he will fully investigate child sexual abuse matters raised by the Fours Corners program on ABC TV this week.
In a statement, Bishop Michael Kennedy says he is in the process of appointing an independent expert to review all available records relating to a man identified in the program as Father F.
Bishop Kennedy’s Armidale diocese includes Moree, one of the places Father F is accused of abusing alter boys.
On Monday, Four Corners alleged three senior priests covered up Father F’s abuse of altar boys in the 1980s.
