The head of the Catholic Church in Ireland insists the issue of child abuse should not disappear because of Pope Francis' visit.
Addressing the legacy of child abuse by priests will be mission impossible for Pope Francis alone, according to the head of the Catholic Church in Ireland

He added: "If you speak to survivors, they're carrying a trauma and they will carry it with them for the rest of their lives.
