Description
Résumé:The Charter for the Protection of Children calls for the "evaluation of the background of all diocesanleparchial personnel who have regular contact with minors" (art. 13). Exactly what is the force of this article (and the entire charter)? Does the bishop have to make it a particular law in his diocese to enforce it? What is a reasonable and appropriate response to this norm? Are all priests and deacons to undergo a 'criminal background check'? What comprises such an evaluation? Does each cleric have to give his permission for such an evaluation? Do diocesan and parish personnel who have no contact with children ( e.g.,finance administrators, newspaper editors, etc.) have to undergo this also?
