I move amendment No. 16:

In page 19, between lines 1 and 2, to insert the following: “(g) in section 11—
(i) by designating the existing section as subsection (1), and

(ii) by inserting the following subsection—
“(2) It shall be a defence to proceedings for an offence under this section that—
(a) the brothel is used by that person to provide his or her own sexual services, and

(b) section 10(1) does not apply to that person.”.”.
