Formal oversight structures can coexist with continued suppression of evidence.

Evidence

In broadening the supervisory responsibility, Mahony created advisory and oversight boards to superintend the protection of children. However, resistance to litigation over the release of church documents continued. The archdiocese was accused of withholding many documents and removing the names of church officials who had supervisory responsibility (Goodstein & Medina, 2013). The church lawyers resisted the release, arguing that they would have to reexamine thousands of redacted documents. — Albert Bandura, Moral Disengagement, 526
