Should buying sex be a crime?
As MSP Ash Regan attempts to criminalise the buying of sex, Martin Geissler and Natalie Higgins ask whether her bill will improve or harm the safety of women selling it.
Alba MSP Ash Regan’s (pictured) Prostitution Bill could make it illegal to pay for sexual services.
Martin asks the former SNP leadership candidate how her suggested law change, which has been criticised by some who work in the industry, will protect women.
And Natalie and Martin discuss your reaction to our interview with Rose Docherty: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m002c1j8
