Information Pack on proposed NSW Sex Industry Regulation
You may have heard about the regulation changing for sex workers and the sex industry in
NSW. Before regulatory systems change they are often proposed as a discussion paper and
then the public (including sex workers) have the
chance to comment on the proposals.
An Issues Paper has now been released.
http://www.betterregulation.nsw.gov.au/targeted_revie
ws . The proposed reforms will impact on every sex worker
in NSW and every sex industry business. This is your
opportunity to inform the changes and to ensure that the
NSW government understands how the proposed
regulation will impact on sex workers.
DON’T BELIEVE THE SPIN –
The proposed regulatory systems will NOT benefit sex
workers. It’s currently NOT illegal to be an Escort, Private
or brothel based sex worker in NSW. The proposed laws
ADD many new regulations, which may include fines and
penalties. These reforms will result in negative impacts
on sex worker health and safety, and access to industrial
and human rights; increased potential for police and
government corruption; and increased monitoring and
surveillance of sex workers by police and government.
THIS IS CRIMINALISING SEX WORKERS NOT HELPING
SEX WORKERS !
