Following the release, a month ago, of the final report of the Independent Commission for the Study of Sexual Abuse of Children in the Catholic Church in Portugal, the Portuguese Bishops’ Conference plans to set up a new independent body charged with listening to and accompanying victims and collecting further reports.
He further explained that it will be different from the Independent Commission established by the bishops in 2021 to examine abuse in recent decades, as it will be more “operative” in nature.The Independent Commission, whose findings were presented on February 13, validated 512 experiences of people who said they had been victims of abuse by priests or other Church officials between 1950 and 2022, out of a total of 564 received.
“The National Coordination team with the Diocesan Commissions, assumes a new role. The very action of the team and the Commissions has to be rethought in the light of the reality that we now know better.”
