..so she's not saying paedophiles as such, just that there are flaws in the barring list atm..?..

She is saying this...
'Miss Reece suggested that the review should also introduce an assumption that sex offenders including child abusers posed no threat once they had served their sentence.'

'Comparing sex offenders to cohabiting couples, she suggested that if blanket bans on the former were allowed, it would make sense to bar those who were not married from adopting because parents who were wed were less likely to separate with harmful consequences for the child.'

And I disagree.
