State by State Laws in Australia

Most sex industry laws in Australia are determined by State and Territory Governments. Federal laws criminalise 'trafficking' (with or without consent) and 'sex slavery' (regardless of sex workers' consent to such work conditions). ACT, WA, Tasmania, South Australia and NSW are all currently reviewing their sex work laws. Qld and Victoria are currently going through legislative changes.
