About this page
This page reports on the Ministry of Justice's expert panel's first hearing regarding revisions to the Prostitution Prevention Act. Currently, the law penalizes the selling side but not the buying side. The revision focuses on whether to penalize buyers. NPO "Papps," addressing sexual exploitation, advocates for punishing buyers and strengthening penalties. Conversely, sex worker advocacy group "SWASH" opposes criminalization of buyers, arguing it increases risks for workers, and instead proposes improving labor conditions. The Ministry of Justice aims for legislative reform in either this autumn's extraordinary session or next year's regular session.
