Selling sex legally in New Zealand

[Guest guest]

Dear Forum,

In case some of you have not already seen this - some lessons to be learnt from

the NZ experience!

Selling sex legally in New Zealand

In terms of attitudes towards prostitution, New Zealand and Europe are almost as

diametrically opposed as they are in geography. Kiwis have opted for wholesale

liberalisation of the sex trade, while Europeans are increasingly restricting

it.

looks at its prostitution industry six years after decriminalisation, in the

first of two articles.
