I have yet to see anyone give an explanation of how this is supposed to work in practice. Seems like a pretty low bar, for those that support this. Just a walk through on what supposedly is going to happen when a priest is accused of not reporting. What happens then?

Canberra and other parts of Australia have enacted legislation that would imprison priests who fail to report confessions of child abuse.

" This is a foreign state's law overriding our civil law, which is there to protect children, it shouldn't have any say at all."
