The Commission for Gender Equality together
with other organisation including Sex Workers’ Education and Advocacy Taskforce
held a working group regarding decriminalisation of sex workers in Glenwood.
This
is after reports emerged that members of the Community Policing Forum in
Glenwood assaulted sex workers by showering them with pepper spray to chase
them away.
Sex Workers’ Education and Advocacy
Taskforce Director Sally Shackleton says they wanted to engage with this
residence association but also make clear that it is not legal to intimidate
sex workers.
Shackleton further said they feel there is
a more sustainable response that could be engaged with.
