 More information was announced by Attorney-General Christian Porter in June 2010.Religious groups continued to oppose any liberalisation, as did elements within the government party although Porter denied this.His critics stated that Porter "would accommodate the market demand for prostitution by setting up a system of licensed brothels in certain non-residential areas" and that people "should accept that prostitution will occur and legalise the trade, because we can never suppress it entirely" and that it is "like alcohol or gambling – saying it should be regulated rather than banned."
