Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

Review of Legislation on Prostitution: Discussion (Resumed)

2:15 pm

Mr. Fergus Healy:

The phones being used within the industry are pre-paid. There is no provision to register the details of the purchaser of such phones. As I outlined in respect of the issues around the other forms of crime, this is a matter of concern. We must, however, work within the legislation as provided and only bill pay phone users are required to register. Until the legislation changes, our hands are tied.
