Catholic order pays out for abuse
The abuse happened at institutions run by religious orders A Catholic religious order is to supply a 161m euros (£145m) package of measures as reparation for child abuse in Ireland.
... More than 2,000 people told the commission they had suffered physical and sexual abuse as children in the institutions, which included schools and orphanages.
It found that sexual abuse was "endemic" in boys' institutions, and church leaders knew what was going on.
On Thursday a separate report will be published exposing child sex abuse by Catholic priests in the Dublin Archdiocese.
