Prostitution in Northern Ireland : ウィキペディア英語版 | Prostitution in Northern Ireland
Prostitution in Northern Ireland was previously legal as elsewhere in the United Kingdom, subject to a number of restraints. These controlled certain activities associated with prostitution such as soliciting, procuring, living on the proceeds of prostitution (pimping), exploitation of prostitutes, under age prostitution and keeping a brothel. Historically prostitution in Northern Ireland was regulated by the same or similar laws to those in England and Wales. However devolution provided the opportunity for separate legislation. In January 2015, the Human Trafficking and Exploitation (Criminal Justice and Support for Victims) Act (Northern Ireland) 2015 was enacted, making it illegal to pay for sex in Northern Ireland. == Nature and extent == As elsewhere, accurate figures for the extent of prostitution in Northern Ireland are difficult to ascertain given the covert nature of the activities, although the police estimated 40-100 people were working in the sex trade in 2010. As in other countries, street prostitution has declined in favour of off-street prostitution.〔 As with much of Europe, there appears to be a fair amount of mobility of prostitutes in and out of the territory, particularly in Belfast. While exact numbers are very hard to obtain, the 2014 research suggested between 300 and 350 people working on any particular day, the majority of whom were women, with the commonest age range being 25 - 30. The researchers found that under age prostitutes were uncommon, and that most prostitutes did not start till they were of legal age.〔
