Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

Review of Legislation on Prostitution: Discussion (Resumed)

2:35 pm

Mr. Fergus Healy:

Let me reassure the Deputy that prostitution is taken very seriously at the most senior levels of the organisation. We have a sophisticated structure to deal with these matters at local and national level. The Commissioner actively monitors the activities of these units in his management meetings through his senior management staff. I am quite satisfied we are dealing with the matter.
