Board of first-aid organisation removed from office in fallout over abuse controversy

The review was to be carried out by the organisation’s chief executive John Byrne, his predecessor Peadar Ward, and one external figure, retired assistant Garda commissioner Fintan Fanning.

A spokeswoman for the Order of Malta Ireland confirmed the review had been provided to Mr McCarthy, “but has not yet been sent to Rome for final review/approval,” and as such was not shared with the council. The previous reports found there had been a failure to take action against Browne, despite the two alleged sexual assaults being reported to officers in the organisation’s ambulance corps.In a November 2nd letter, Mr McCarthy told members of the Irish association he had “no choice but to disband the presidential council”. In its place he set up an “executive steering group”, which he said would “assure continuity in governance” and “efficiency of purpose”.
