Early engagement on the Brothel Control Bylaw 2017 is complete. We'll provide an update on next steps in 2024.
The Brothel Control Bylaw controls where brothels can be established or operate in Queenstown and Wānaka. This includes setting rules for the density of brothels within the town centres and how they advertise their location/services.
Council is required to review its bylaws every five years, and in some cases every ten years. The Brothel Control Bylaw 2017 (external link) is due for review and will expire if not reviewed prior to May 2024.
Our role
The development and enforcement of the Brothel Control Bylaw 2017 is undertaken by Council, however, the regulation of brothels themselves, including the registration of brothels, is done by the Ministry of Justice. Any legislation or commercial information regarding brothels is not held by Council.
Have your say
As part of the review, we’re seeking early input from the community on whether the Brothel Control Bylaw 2017 is fit for purpose and meeting the communities needs and expectations.
Anyone is welcome to provide feedback on the current bylaw or where the review should focus.
The pre-engagement period closed on 16 August 2023.
