Full coverage of the Pope's two-day trip to Ireland, the first papal visit in 40 years.
Pope Francis is at the Convent of the Dominican Sisters in Dublin where he meeting with Irish bishops and clergy.

A speech to be given by him to the bishops was released to the media earlier today.

In the speech, he tells the bishops that that "a recurrent theme of his visit... has been the Church's need to acknowledge and remedy, with evangelical honesty and courage, past failures with regard to the protection of children and vulnerable adults".

He says the Catholic Church in Ireland has moved forward "with the help of the National Board for Safeguarding Children" and established "a stringent set of norms aimed at ensuring the safety of young persons".

"In these years, all of us have had our eyes opened to the gravity and extent of sexual abuse in various social settings.

"In Ireland, as elsewhere, the honestly and integrity with which the Church chooses to confront this pianful chapter of her history can offer and example and a warning to society as a whole."
