In our two-part series on sex workers, we've been looking at the changes that were made to Ireland's laws on prostitution in 2017, which are now under review.

Mia de Faoite, a survivor of prostitution, discussed her own experience and the violence that sex workers often have to deal with, and we were also joined by Amanda Keane, policy and communications manager with Ruhama.
