Summary
Fate of prostitutes in the balance - 11 May
Should adult prostitution be decriminalised totally or not? This
is just one of the questions being posed by the SA Law Reform
Commission in a discussion paper which has been released for
public comment. Other options contained in the document include
the partial criminalisation of some forms of adult prostitution or
the regulation of adult prostitution and prostitution-related
acts. The primary aim of the discussion paper is to consider the
need for law reform in relation to adult prostitution and to
identify alternative policy and legislative responses that might
regulate, prevent, deter or reduce prostitution, a statement from
the commission reads. -
