The Anglican Church of Tasmania has confirmed it will pay $3.65 million in compensation to 24 survivors of sexual abuse, but will look at selling more assets after its liability estimates more than doubled.

The Anglican Diocese had initially estimated its liability under the National Redress Scheme to be $8.6 million in 2018, but that figure has since been revised to more than $23 million, with an estimated liability of $19.4 million remaining after the payment of $3.65 million to the 24 survivors. "We're expecting between 150 and 200 people to come forward over the 10-year period of the National Redress Scheme."

Dr Condie said the Diocese was "about halfway" through selling these properties, with three currently on the market.
