Royal Commission thanked for giving survivors 'justice, strength and hope'

FOR three decades Hunter Catholic school principal Steve Murray buried memories of being sexually assaulted by a Marist Brother, for more than a decade he tried to hold the Catholic Church to account, and by 2012 “I had given up because they were too hard to fight”.
Mr Murray has broken his silence to thank the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse, commissioners, and former prime minister Julia Gillard for establishing the historic inquiry, at the end of the 57th and final public hearing on Friday.
