David Norris (Independent) | Oireachtas source

What have we got to be afraid of in a review of the operation of the Act? The Minister of State does not want to know the facts. He has turned his face against them. The amendment provides that the Minister shall collect data to review the operation of this offence and report to the Houses of the Oireachtas. What is wrong with it? It is good parliamentary procedure. The Minister's report would include information on the nature and extent of prostitution connected to human trafficking. There has been a blurring of the division between prostitution and trafficking.
