Commercial sexual exploitation multi-agency group - gov.scot

Overview

The Equally Safe strategy defines commercial sexual exploitation as activity which includes prostitution, lap dancing, stripping, pornography and trafficking.

This multi-agency group is working with government to develop steps to reduce the harms associated with this form of violence, support women to exit it and tackle the issues that can lead to someone being exploited in this way.

This is part of the Equally Safe Delivery Plan.

The group meets on a quarterly basis.
