An offender advocating child sexual abuse has been stopped from attending church in Sydney, an inquiry into the Anglican Church has heard.
Dozens of other child abusers or people deemed to be a potential risk to children are allowed to worship in the Anglican Church but are monitored under safety plans, the child sex abuse royal commission has heard.
The Diocese of Sydney is managing 32 people on safety plans but its professional standards director Lachlan Bryant says two offenders have been deemed unsuitable to attend parishes.
“One of them is an offender who was essentially proselytising child sexual abuse,” Mr Byrant told the royal commission on Tuesday.
