A Bill allowing Manukau City Council to ban street prostitution passed its first reading and has been sent to a select committee for public submissions. It has now been expanded to cover the whole of the Auckland Super City.
The purpose of this bill is to authorise the Auckland Council to make bylaws prohibiting the business of prostitution or commercial sexual services in specified public places in Auckland City. It is hoped that the legislation will then be extended to cover the whole of the country. e.g. Christchurch is also experiencing huge problems with this issue.
It’s a good law for families, should be extended to cover the whole of NZ, and the politicians should support the wishes of the local communities

About this organisation
Family First is NOT a political party and has no intention to be one.
Their role is to be a voice for families in the public domain, and to research and advocate for family and marriage issues.Family First has released its ‘Principles on Family’ – 11 principles highlighting the meaning and significance of the term ‘family’. While there are many forms of family in today’s society, these principles hold true as to what we need to encourage and protect.It has been adapted from “The Natural Family: A Manifesto” developed by the World Congress of Families. The World Congress of Families has been held since 1997 in Prague, Geneva and Mexico City, and was held in Poland (May 07).
