Failure to report abuse in Scouting Ireland.
Teipeadh mí-usáid a thuairisciú i nGasógaíocht Éireann.
A new report on sexual abuse cases that has occurred in Scouting Ireland shows that there was cover up and failure to report the abuse.
Léiríonn tuarascáil nua atá déanta maidir le cásanna de mhí-usáid gnéis a tharla i nGasógaíocht Éireann go raibh forcheilt i gceist agus gur teipeadh an mhí-usáid a thuairisciú.
The report was written and compiled by Ian Elliott, a child protection consultant.
'Sé Ian Elliott, comhairleoir maidir le cosaint leanaí a scrígh agus a chur an tuarascáil le chéile.
It states that the abuse was not dealt with in a way that protected the abused person or that no attempt was made to bring the abuser to account.
Deir sé nár chuathas i ngleic leis an mhí-usáid i slí a chosain an duine a raibh mí-usáid bainte astu nó ní raibh aon iarracht déanta an duine a rinne an mhí-úsáid a thabhairt chun cuntais.
Scouting Ireland has apologized to the victims.
Tá leithscéal gafa ag Gasógaíocht Éireann leis na daoine a d'fhulaing an mhí-úsáid.
Last year, Scout Ireland commissioned Ian Elliot to examine the case.
Anuraidh, choimisiúnaigh Gasógaíocht Éireann Ian Elliot chun an cás a scrúdú.
Elliot said the extent of the abuse is uncertain as records have been lost and destroyed.
Dúirt Elliot nach féidir a dhéanamh amach go cinnte cé chomh forleathan is a bhí an mhí-úsáid mar go bhfuil taifid caillte agus scriosta.
The Minister for Children and Youth Affairs, Dr Katherine Zappone has welcomed the report on abuse cases that have occurred in Scouting Ireland.
Tá fáilte curtha ag an Aire Leanaí agus Gnóthaí Óige, Dr Katherine Zappone roimh an tuarascáil atá déanta maidir le cásanna de mhí-usáid a tharla i nGasógaíocht Éireann.
Historical allegations were disclosed by an Oireachtas Committee two years ago relating to sexual abuse in the society mainly between the 1960s and the 1990s.
Nochtaíodh líomhaintí stairiúla ag Coiste Oireachtais dhá bhliain ó shin a bhain le mísúsáid gnéis sa chumann idir na 1960'aidí agus na 1990'aidí don chuid is mó.
Catholic Scouts Ireland and the Irish Scout Association came together under the umbrella of Scouting Ireland in 2004.
Tháinig Gasóga Caitliceacha na hÉireann agus Cumann Gasóg na hÉireann le chéile faoi scáth Gasógaíocht Éireann i 2004.
Mr Elliott says that young people who have suffered abuse appear to have been ignored and that when efforts were made to support them, they have not been satisfactorily recorded.
Deir an tUasal Elliott go bhfuil an chuma air gur ndearnadh neamhaird do dhaoine óga a d'fhulaing míúsáid agus nuair a rinneadh iarrachtaí tacaíocht a thabhairt dóibh, nach ndearnadh taifid sasúil dóibh.
It also states that records have been lost or destroyed.
Deir sé chomh maith gur cailleadh taifid ná gur scriosadh iad.
To date, 356 alleged sexual abuse victims have been identified in the scouts.
Aithníodh 356 duine go dtí seo a líomhnaíodh a d'fhulaing míúsáid gnéis 'sna gasóga.
It is alleged that 275 people were involved in the attacks and that a score and a half have suffered sexual assaults from other young people.
Líomhnaítear go raibh 275 duine i mbun na n-ionsaithe agus gur fhulaing scór go leith duine ionsaithe gnéis ó dhaoine óga eile.
People with an inappropriate interest in young people have sometimes managed to secure senior positions in the organization and have been in control of attempts to move known offenders out of scouts, the report says.
D'éirigh le daoine a raibh suim míchuí acu i ndaoine óga postanna sinsearacha a bhaint amach san eagraíocht in amanna agus bhí smacht acu ar iarrachtaí a rinneadh ciontóirí aitheanta a bhogadh amach as na gasóga, a deir an tuarascáil.
Favorable friendships have been maintained and efforts have also been made to op...
