Unfortunately the law does not differentiate between sex workers sharing a space for safety and those who are being coerced so reporting sex workers does not guarantee their safety. In fact it can lead to arrest, deportation and even jail time.

If people are turning to sex work to fund their alcohol addiction, they need wraparound supports and resources, not stigma and criminalisation of their income.
When Piri escapes homelessness into a basement squat, she'll find waitressing isn't enough to go farther.
Then she'll find out about camming and, with a little help from a friend, try to get to a decent life.

This article was written before the awful law review was published but nothing has changed. Sex workers are still being endangered by our laws and SWAI still faces closure by the end of the year.
ICYMI The review of the laws governing sex work in Ireland was finally published last month and we are incredibly disappointed with the outcome.
From the initial survey to this final report, the review has taken the stance that the law is in and of itself a positive thing. SWAI fundamentally disagrees with this position and is supported by extensive evidence that sex workers are harmed by these laws.
Would society be better if we embraced #sex and our physical body? Or would those in control lose #power when we realize our humanity? Pepper Kat tells her story in #SexWork and the #liberation we could feel if we'd only allow ourselves:
Last Friday was the second anniversary of the death of Geila Ibram, a sex worker who was killed in Limerick. Ugly Mugs Ireland spoke to the Independent about how sex workers need DECRIMINALISATION, not legalisation or criminalisation, to keep them safe.
The Irish Times podcast covers Ireland's sex work laws and the disastrous review of the law, released last month. Demand for sex work has not decreased under the law and SWAI's call for decriminalisation is discussed.

ICYMI Belgium listened to sex workers' needs and decriminalised sex work! Criminalisation of sex work creates vulnerability and increases violence.
These laws were brought in while increasing sentences for rape and centring consent within the law.
Only full decriminalisation of sex work will ensure that the health and safety of sex workers in Ireland are prioritised.
Banning online advertising will not reduce sex work, it will push sex workers away from their safety nets and back onto the streets. But it is much easier to make noise about online advertising than address the material needs of sex workers.
"...the Review highlights that despite the criminalisation of the purchase of sexual services, demand has not decreased.” Despite the Minister for Justice admitting that the law is failing, the report still says the law is meeting its objectives!
