A senior Australian Anglican bishop has been accused of failing to report a priest's sexual abuse to police after he received complaints about the behaviour in 2002.

ABC's 7.30 program has reported the Archbishop of Perth, Roger Heft, allegedly failed to formally report Father Peter Rushton's abuse to police when they both worked in NSW's Hunter region.

Alleged victims of Mr Rushton's abuse have told the ABC they were raped and sexually assaulted by him and other abusers involved in a paedophile ring.
