Colm O'Gorman on 20 Years since the Ferns Report
from Newstalk Weekend
20 years ago, the Ferns Report laid bare the systematic abuse of children by members of the Catholic Church in the Diocese of Ferns, and the institutional failures that allowed it to continue for decades. It was the first official state inquiry into clerical sexual abuse in Ireland, and it marked a turning point in how the country confronted that dark chapter of its history. Colm O’Gorman, Human Rights Campaigner and founder and former Director of One in Four, joins Anton to look back on its impact, legacy, and how Ireland has, or hasn’t, changed since.
