A Home Office minister has conceded the government must consider closing a loophole allowing sex offenders to change their name - amid concern it is allowing criminals to evade justice.

She said a new name allows criminals to get a new driving licence and passport and with those documents"you can then get a clean DBS check in that new name".

Asked if sex offenders should be stopped from changing their name in the first place, Ms Champion said"you still then have the same problem of trying to enforce it". From January 2017 to December 2019, 1,349 registered sex offenders notified a name change - but 913 were reported missing during the same time.A deed poll process takes 15 minutes online and costs £42.44.

Ahead of his trial in 2016, her attacker changed his name again to Mr Mac, so he was unable to enter a plea because the charges were against Robert McEwan. The process was disrupted for several weeks and Ms Wright believes he did it in the hope she would lose her nerve.
