Three Cork Maynooth Seminary Students Will Return in September
The Bishop of Cork and Ross has confirmed that the three students from the diocese who are attending Maynooth will return in September.
Bishop John Buckley added that the diocese will also have a number of first year students, all of whom will be going to Maynooth.
He made his comments in support of Maynooth following allegations of a gay sub-culture among trainee priests at the college..
The Archbishop of Dublin Diarmuid Martin says he will send seminarians to train in Rome rather than Maynooth.
The College says it has no evidence of a problem.
Longford priest Fr Joe McGrath thinks the issue is being blown out of proportion:
