The Royal Commission
into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse has now published its
Case Study 26 on the Neerkol Orphanage in Rockhampton.
The Commission finds that the response by the bishop and by the Sisters of Mercy to victims making complaints prior to 1996 was often inadequate and lacking in compassion. It also makes a damning finding that the bishop was dishonest in a letter he sent to the diocese.
