Text of Petition
As a victim of
child abuse by catholic priests and monks I wish to get the Welsh Governmnet to
hold a public inquiry into the historic child abuse on Caldy Island. Victims
need the truth and answers as to why an ongoing investigation for 29 years has
failed the victims. The inquiry will help to safeguard children in the future.
