 Dallene Clark, lead researcher on adult prostitution at the SA Law Reform Commission (SALRC) says they received thousands of submissions from concerned citizens across the country – the majority of whom selected the option that totally criminalises the sex industry. According to her, the SALRC will now embark on a long and complicated process which must acknowledge every single submission before making recommendations to the Minister of Justice. Ms Clark estimates the earliest the Minister of Justice can expect to receive the final recommendations for legislation on adult prostitution is early 2011. If this is correct, it will mean a crushing defeat for those lobbying for legalised prostitution for the 2010 World Cup. And more importantly, represents a significant victory for women and children! enaidoo@familypolicyinstitute.org or www.familypolicyinstitute.org |
