The Vatican said Friday its anti-sexual abuse commission would work more closely with its evangelization branch, which is led by Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle, in order to better protect minors, including training bishops from dioceses far from Rome.
Pope Francis set up the Pontifical Commission for the Protection of Minors in 2014 to fight clerical sex abuse, which will now collaborate with the Vatican's Dicastery for Evangelization led by Cardinal Luis Antonio Tagle, according to the three-year agreement. FILE PHOTO
The commission has come under fire recently after its most influential member, Hans Zollner, quit in March, accusing the body of urgent problems related to compliance, accountability and transparency. Regarding the training of new bishops, who are all brought to Rome for such instruction, he said, "If we had had the opportunity to hear about safeguarding, and understand, the history of the church would have been different."
"My impression is [that] the guidelines are clear for those of us who have been formed in a particular culture, and we tend to presume that what is clear to us is clear to other people now," he said.
