Statement of Donna M. Morrissey, Spokeswoman, Archdiocese of Boston
May 17, 2002
His Eminence Bernard Cardinal Law met with the members of the Cardinal's
Commission for the Protection of Children today at Regis College in Weston
and accepted for consideration a draft of their preliminary report and
policy review. Cardinal Law reacted favorably to the eight recommendations
that the Commission brought forth and he applauded their tireless work.
Cardinal Law looks forward to sharing the recommendations of the Commission
with his brother Bishops at the United States Catholic Conference of Bishops
meeting in Dallas in June.
Cardinal Law is grateful for the dedication and commitment that the members
of the commission have shown and the time they have invested in contributing
to a systematic reform of policies intended to protect children. The Cardinal's
Commission for the Protection of Children underscores the value and significance
of involvement by laity in serving the mission of the Church.
