Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality
Review of Legislation on Prostitution: Discussion
2:35 pm
Ms Orla O'Connor:
The Deputy is right that introducing legislation will need additional resources. It also means training for gardaí. That is a wider question, however, about choices and priorities in a time of austerity. I do not think that should prevent legislation from coming forward; the legislation must come first and then resources follow. That is a wider discussion about the choices we are now making in Ireland.
