Ban lap-dancing, says women's group
The Ruhama Women's Project, which has called in the past for lap-dancing to be banned, says the Government must act now following today's raids and arrests at clubs across the country.
More than 100 people, mostly women from Eastern Europe, have been detained as part of a crackdown on illegal immigration at 10 clubs nationwide.
Ruhama's director Maura Connolly said the organisation was fearful that criminal gangs are smuggling women into the country, forcing them to work in the Irish sex industry.
