Germany plans to fine brothels with no apprentices. It's the usual suspects, of course:
The legislation drafted by the Social Democrats and their Greens coalition partners will fine companies that do not have one apprentice for every 15 workers.I suspect the parlimentarians will need some "in-depth" studies to determine the exact nature of the duties of the apprentices.
Several members of the Greens party tried to allow an exemption for prostitutes but the Education Ministry responsible for the legislation blocked that, arguing it "would cause considerable difficulties", Der Spiegel said.
