As Fi Bows to Peer Pressure

I can now officially tell you, just in case you were wondering (chances are that many of you weren’t), that the Prostitution Review Working Group has been formed. It includes Gordon Copeland and Larry Baldock (from United Future), Marion Hobbs (Labour), and officials from the Ministry of Justice and Department of Internal Affairs.

The aim of the group is to address the problems associated with street soliciting, underage involvement in prostitution, and local authority control over brothel zoning, and it will report to the Minister of Justice.

I’m not going to be able to say much about this until after the report is out but keep an eye out for any information on this working group’s progress.
