The leaders of the TRUTH, JUSTICE AND HEALING COUNCIL set up last week by the Australian Catholic Church are the Honorary Barry O’Keefe QC, (Chair) and Francis Sullivan (CEO). Mr O’Keefe is a former Chief Supreme Court Judge (NSW) and Chair of Interpol’s International Group of Experts on Corruption. Mr Sullivan is a former Secretary General of Australian Medical Association (AMA).
The Church supports the establishment of the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse. The Truth, Justice and Healing Council has three tasks:
Identifying systematic institutional failures that have impeded the protection of children
Promoting lasting healing for the survivors of previous abuse
Identifying all necessary measures to prevent abuse of children in the future.
