Cardinal George Pell says the Catholic Church leadership failed to protect children in a Victorian diocese, but he accepts no responsibility for moving a paedophile priest. Australia's most senior Catholic, Cardinal Pell has faced a second day of giving evidence before the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse. It is his third royal-commission appearance from Rome via video link because he has been deemed too ill to fly to Australia. But a number of Australian survivors of child sex abuse are in Rome to be in the room while he gives evidence.
