The Curia Response Team took seven years to reach the conclusion that the allegations by 11 men that they had been sexually abused as children by four members of the clergy were founded.

The Response Team was chaired by retired judge Victor Caruana Colombo, incidentally the same judge who was appointed by Gozo Bishop Mario Grech to chair another commission to inquire into the fireworks factory incident at Għarb earlier this year. I hope that this time the commission will not take that long to draw up its report and make the necessary recommendations.
