ANGLICAN CHURCH CHILD SEX ABUSE INQUIRY

The two Anglican Ministers who ‘blew the whistle’ on the handling by the Adelaide Diocese of the Anglican Church of child sex abuse allegations, will hold a media conference today following the tabling of the report of the independent Inquiry into their allegations.

Reverends Don Owers and Andrew King – the Anglican Ministers who held a media conference on 22 May 2003 calling for an inquiry into the church’s handling of the abuse claims – will hold the media conference today at 3:15pm at the Plaza Room following the anticipated tabling in Parliament of the report of the inquiry by former Supreme Court Justice Trevor Olsson and Dr. Donna Chung.
