According to police allegations, Mr Duncan followed through on his intentions in June and had sex with a 14-year-old girl twice at an undisclosed location in Tahmoor. Police further allege he sexually touched the teen and carried out a sexual act with her in Tahmoor during the same month.

Police claim Mr Duncan used his phone to solicit child sex abuse material and send indecent material to the 14-year-old in June and July this year in Bargo.

He was arrested on October 7 by the Child Abuse Unit South Metro, who charged him with the seven offences before the court.

The court heard Mr Duncan is currently on bail but restrained by restrictive conditions which prohibit him from entering the town of Tahmoor. He is also only allowed access to one phone, and the passcode must be given to police.

His matter will return to Picton Court on January 12.
