Ms Rachel Woods:

That is a very good question. All sexual offences are difficult to prove in certain circumstances. It is quite clear that, no matter how an offence is constructed, there will be an element of "he said, she said" or two stories and two sides. The position is difficult to prove. However, the evidential standards will be those that apply in every other sexual offence. In this case, where advertising is available, there can be actual physical evidence. Often there are email, text or phone contacts. Those would be the kinds of evidential supports available, but that will be a difficulty no matter how the offence is constructed. That is inherent in almost all sexual offences.
