Anglican Archbishop of Perth, Roger Herft is expected to take to the witness stand at the Royal Commission in Newcastle today.
He was Bishop of the Newcastle Diocese for 12 years and is expected to face questions over what he knew about the activities of paedophile priest Peter Rushton during his time with the church.
Rushton is also said to have been at the heart of a paedophile ring of clergy and lay church workers who preyed on children at St Alban's Boys Home at Cessnock.
