The head of the Catholic church watchdog into clerical abuse in Ireland is to head up a similar review panel in Australia, he has revealed.
Ian Elliott said he will leave his post in the summer after examining the records of 16 diocese and four religious orders.
The remaining 10 dioceses will be complete by the end of this year, he said, with the 100 plus orders and religious authorities examined by 2015.
“I have been invited to go work in Australia with the Catholic church,” he said. “They are interested in a review process and are learning from the Irish experience.”
