By means of a weighted index, the Commission found that at 75 archdioceses/dioceses and religious institutes with priest members examined, some 7 per cent of priests (who worked in Australia between 1950 and 2009) had allegations made against them (this finding did not represent allegations tested in a court of law).
委員會通過加權指數發現，在75名大殿/教區和有司鐸成員的宗教機構中，約有7%的神父（1950年至2009年期間在澳大利亞工作）有針對他們的指控（這一發現並不代表在法庭上測試的指控）。
