Voorstel van wet van het lid Agema tot wijziging van het Wetboek van Strafrecht tot verhoging van de minimumleeftijd voor prostituees naar 21 jaar

Stage otherUpdated 6d ago

This is a private member's bill introduced in the Dutch House of Representatives by MP Agema. It proposes amending the Dutch Criminal Code to raise the minimum age for working as a prostitute from 18 to 21 years. Such bills are initiated by individual members of parliament rather than the government, and they must go through committee review and votes before they can become law. If adopted, the change would affect people working in the Dutch legal sex industry, including sex workers under 21 and businesses that employ or engage them. Its impact would depend on the final text, which this summary does not reflect.
