A consultation on the interment of Bishop Eamonn Casey's remains in Galway Cathedral is underway.

It follows an investigation that revealed sexual assault allegations against the high-profile bishop, who died in 2017.

Bishop of Galway, Michael Duignan says he's committed to "working with anybody affected, to help bring truth, healing and peace" to "terribly painful situations".
