- Title
Enhanced Accountability: The Catholic Church's Unfinished Business.
- Authors
BAINBRIDGE, STEPHEN M.
- Abstract
The article proposes the U.S. Catholic Church to look to corporate governance compliance programs to enhance the accountability of dioceses when it comes to reporting and addressing sex abuse cases involving priests. Topics discussed include mechanisms by which reform could be effectuated and proposals to amend the Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People to create a formal reporting system and to create diocesan and national disciplinary bodies to prevent such cases.
