Statement by Bishop Freeman

On 24th September 2011, Fr. Peter Muldowney a priest of the Diocese of Ossory requested me to allow him a period of leave from ministry so that a safeguarding matter received by the diocese concerning him could be addressed.   

I adhered to his request.  

All Church and State Safeguarding Guidelines were fully complied with. 

I now inform you that this safeguarding matter has been withdrawn.   

Father Peter returns to active ministry today, 5th May 2012.

I ask for your prayers for all concerned.

Bishop of Ossory
