THE names of members of the Catholic Church in Ireland convicted of child abuse were published online yesterday.
More than 70 names of priests and religious brothers convicted or named in abuse enquiries appeared on a database of the independent organisation, BishopAccountability.org.
It said it believes that by making the list public it "makes children safer".
It has also called on Pope Francis to release the names of all priests - including Irish ones - who have been disciplined by the Church for child sexual abuse.
