In September 2014, the fieldwork began into reviews of safeguarding
practice of 8 male religious congregations and 8 female religious
congregations. The 8 male religious and 1 of the female religious were
assessed against the Catholic Church’s 7 safeguarding standards.
The remaining 7 female religious, due to their limited ministry with children, aging profile and absence of allegations relating to sexual abuse of children were assessed against a different framework, proportionate to the degree of ministry they hold. The Terms of Reference for both sets of reviews are appended to the individual reports.
