FORMER police officer and National
party MP Troy Grant has made explosive claims about cover-ups of child
sex abuse within the Catholic church, including deliberate actions by a
nun to tip off a paedophile priest.
Speaking to media after giving evidence at a special commission of inquiry in Newcastle this morning, Mr Grant said that while he never encountered a "Catholic mafia" within the police force, there was certainly collusion within the clergy to hide serious sex offences.
