Auditors hired by the U.S. bishops to check child safety in Catholic dioceses each year warned in a new report of a drift away from parts of the church's nine-year-old abuse prevention plan, the Associated Press reports.

Mary Jane Doerr, associate director of the secretariat of child and youth protection of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, said in an interview with the Star Tribune on Tuesday that a list of the 55 dioceses would not be released. She said Minnesota's dioceses are in compliance with the charter directives.
