PHILIPSBURG – The Minister of Public Health, Social Development, and Labor Emil Lee, would like to bring to the attention of the public, that there is a growing informal sex industry outside of the clubs, where women in nightclubs and bars are offering their services outside of the club environment.

“From a health perspective this is concerning, as it is an unregulated market. This means that these women have probably not undergone any health inspections that are mandatory in the adult entertaining industries,” mentioned Minister Lee.

In addition, the lack of security protocols can create a safety risk for both the person offering the services, as well as the client.

“I caution everyone to be careful with this unregulated industry that seems to be developing outside the clubs,” said Minister Lee.
