THE six experts who will lead the inquiry into child abuse are set to hold their first discussion on the logistics of the royal commission.

Prime Minister Julia Gillard announced the commissioners and their terms of reference on Friday and met supporters of the royal commission at Kirribilli House in Sydney on Saturday.

The commissioners, who have never met, will get to know each other and discuss some initial logistics on Monday.

The first face-to-face meeting will be held in Sydney on Wednesday afternoon.

The royal commission, led by NSW judge Peter McClellan, is expected to hold hearings and take submissions across the country as well as take evidence from people who spent their childhoods in Australia but now live overseas.

It will hand the government an initial report by June 2014 and will wrap up by the end of 2015.

The commissioners are working on setting up processes for hearing and collecting evidence and what services are needed to support witnesses to the commission.

An investigative unit will be set up to ensure timely referral and criminal investigation of allegations of child sexual abuse that come before the commission, should victims seek such action.
