The wording of the Bill is likely to be such that if you are in a room alone with a person that can be shown to be a Sex Worker, (for example, by advertising on a site such as this) you are guilty.
My understanding is that Feminists up there were opposed to it as what The DUP wants is not usually good for women!
Also The National Union Of Students In Northern Ireland opposed it, AFAIK!
BTW in The Republic, they wouldn't get away with that one - alone in a room with a known sex worker = punter, as previously the concept of 'Common prostitute' was tahnkfully thrown out as unconstitutional - so there's one avenue, they can't legally go down!
