Review of Legislation on Prostitution: Discussion

Ms Denise Charlton:
We do not know. Women would be told to present as over 18. Even some of the clients of the immigrant council who are clearly under age and who have come to the attention of the authorities on a number of occasions have been told to present as over 18, and I am sure that is the experience of Barnardos and Ruhama as well.
