a) I wish to inform the Honourable Member that the South African Law
Reform Commission (SALRC) considered sex work in its investigation
into Sexual Offences: Adult Prostitution (Project 107). This
investigation has now been finalized, and as required in terms of
section 7(1) of the South African Law Reform Commission Act, 1973
(Act No 19 of 1973), the report has been submitted to me during
July 2015 for my consideration.
b) I am currently still considering the report and the recommendations
contained therein. As soon as I finalize considering the report,
further announcements will be made.
