Spain’s government and Catholic Church will compensate abuse victims, including those harmed by deceased priests, via a new oversight system.
Spain’s Catholic Church and government have agreed to compensate victims of clergy sexual abuse, particularly those involving deceased or time-barred perpetrators, with the ombudsman overseeing the process.
Victims can file claims through the Justice Ministry, and if no agreement is reached, a joint committee decides, with the ombudsman’s recommendation final.
Compensation may include financial, psychological, and spiritual support, tax-exempt.
The deal follows years of criticism and reports estimating hundreds of thousands of victims, marking a significant shift toward accountability.
