Registered child sex offenders in Australia will be stuck in a giant penal colony (known as Australia) under a proposed law:
Australia's estimated 20,000 registered child sex offenders would lose their passports under a new law that government officials say is aimed at preventing convicted pedophiles from victimizing children overseas. Officials call the proposal a "world first" in the fight against child sex tourism.
"This new legislation represents the toughest crackdown on child sex tourism by any government, anywhere," Foreign Minister Julie Bishop said, adding that Australia is "determined to prevent the sexual exploitation of vulnerable young children overseas."

You are conflating "pedophile" (having a certain mental condition) and "child sex offender" (having committed a specific crime). Note that neither is a subset of the other: There are pedophiles who are not child sex offernders, and there are child sex offenders that are not pedophiles.
