In Australia it goes further than this - the coverup continues unabated and financed by our state and federal governments see http://www.tfyws.biz/

Does the NSW Government through its provision of road signs, multi-million dollar funding and other services to the Papal Visit and World Youth Day enable the largest single identified group of pedophiles and sexual abusers on the planet? Is it in breach of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child? Is it in breach of The NSW Charter of Victims Rights?

Many feel that the supply of millions of tax payers dollars to support a religious group which on a global scale has been shown to be responsible for the sexual abuse of tens of thousands of children is not only in breach of the above but also in breach of many items in The Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

Why should a religion be provided with millions of tax payer dollars when no formal plan has been put forward by that religion to ensure the safety of children from the pedarists and sexual abusers in their midst?

What are the stated positions of the NSW Government on the issues of clergy sexual abuse and the treatment of victims of clergy abuse by religions?

Will the NSW Government publicly address the issue of identification and reporting of sexually abusive priests in NSW with the Pope on his upcoming visit?

Will the NSW Government take the opportunity of the papal visit to seek the release of all documentation held by the Vatican pertaining to Australian victims of clergy sexual abuse?
