Prostitution bill needs to be clearer, MPs told 8:32
After three days of often heart-wrenching testimony, the House Justice committee is set to wrap up the first phase of its work on the government's proposed prostitution law rewrite later today.
- Prostitution bill likely unconstitutional, MPs told
- Witness Timea Nagy not offended by Tory MP's rape questions
- Prostitution laws: 7 voices from the field
- Spend more to help sex workers exit industry, witnesses urge
Testimony resumes at 9:30 a.m. ET - CBCnews.ca will carry the committee hearing live.
On the witness list for the final round of hearings:
- Asian Women Coalition Ending Prostitution
- Hope for the Sold
- Vancouver Rape Relief and Women's Shelter
- Aboriginal Legal Services of Toronto
- u-r home

According to the posted schedule, committee members will reconvene next Tuesday to begin — and, presumably, finish — clause-by-clause review of the bill.
