Government prostitution inquiry imminent: deadline 18th Feb

[Warwick]

In Norway the Police appear to be very pro-active in enforcing the Law even if their actions appear to breach one of the key elements of the Nordic model ......... that the SP is not the criminal. One can only assume that if the Law is adopted here that those who pushed so hard to get it will not be satisfied with a half hearted attitude towards it's enforcement.

It could get quite nasty. There are some unpleasant stories about what happened when the police in Edinburgh were directed to raid the saunas and massage places there a few years ago.

I've heard that the Norwegian police are quite laid back on this issue in comparison to their Swedish counterparts.

There is a senior police officer in Sweden who made a pronouncement not too long ago that prostitution is a most severe threat to society.
