A SOCIAL worker who downloaded child porn has been struck off the care register.
In June, Paul Neill, aged 33, of Pencoed Avenue, Cefn Fforest, was handed a three-year supervision order and a sex offender treatment programme after pleading guilty to downloading indecent images of children.
The judge at Newport Crown Court told Merthyr Tydfil Council worker Neill the images he had were disturbing and exploitative, and banned him from working with children.
Now he cannot even see his own children except by arrangement with his former colleagues in the social services.
Merthyr Tydfil Council suspended Neill when the allegations came to light in September 2006, and sacked him on his conviction but the authority could not bar him from social work for life.
This week the Care Council for Wales met to decide whether Neill should be removed from the Social Care Register altogether.
He asked the panel to suspend his registration rather than remove it altogether, but panel chairwoman Mutale Nyoni said: The committee has decided it is necessary to remove your name from the register.
