THE Catholic Church has in place a policy on misconduct and sexual abuse, says Roman Catholic Church Archbishop of Suva Peter Loy Chong.
He stated this during an interview by this newspaper after being questioned on few cases where Catholic priests were reported to have molested women in the past.
“We have dealt with some cases in the past, but we will not reveal more on that.
“We have a very strict policy for any misconduct in our ministry so we have a very clear policy where we don’t condone such actions,” he said.
He said a professional standard resource group would deal with the case if reported.
