The Royal Commission heard that 1,006 plausible complaints of child sexual abuse had been received by the JW\u2019s in Australia but no <a href=\"https:\/\/kelsolawyers.com\/au\/offenders\/\">alleged perpetrators<\/a> had been reported to the police. It appears that the JW\u2019s would have a substantial financial exposure if it joined the Scheme.<\/p>\n<p>Alternatively, the JW\u2019s may be stripped of its charity status if it fails to sign up by the 30 June 2020 deadline.<\/p>\n<p>The JW\u2019s have refused to remove sex offenders from congregations unless the victim can produce a second witness. The organisation was criticized for its &#8220;Second Witness Rule&#8221; by the Royal Commission.<\/p>\n<p>The JW\u2019s global operations are controlled by a Governing Body of eight men from JW headquarters in Warwick, New York State, USA. The decision to join or not to join the Redress Scheme is the responsibility of the US Governing Body.<\/p>\n<p>JW\u2019s have a history of distrust of the government, refusing to vote and avoiding military service. They are banned in China, Russia, Singapore and most Muslim majority countries. They are most active in the USA, Mexico and Brazil. JW\u2019s were once banned in Canada.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, Hillsong Church and the leading Pentecostal umbrella group, Australian Christian Churches, have all signed up for the National Redress Scheme (Hillsong Church is now a separate legal entity from ACC).<\/p>\n<p>The addition of non-government institutions including Hillsong Church, Australian Christian Churches (ACC), C3 Churches, Churches of Christ, Baptists, Christian Schools Australia and Barnardo\u2019s Australia, has more than doubled the number of non-government groups in the scheme from 67 to 162 in one year.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>2020 update: Federal Parliamentary Committee will &#8220;name and shame&#8221; institutions who miss the June 2020 deadline<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>A federal parliamentary committee will publish a list of all institutions which have &#8220;dragged their feet&#8221; or refused to sign up to the NRS by the 30 June 2020 deadline.
