Erotic centre not next to EMA says mayor, as locals slam 'mega brothel'

Dutch News  

Amsterdam’s plans to potentially locate a new erotic centre in the south of the city will not have an impact on safety at the European Medicines Agency, city mayor Femke Halsema has told the Parool. On Tuesday the EMA said it was raising the issue with the European Commission because it is ‘very concerned’ the centre will ‘create safety, security and nuisance issues for the 900 + staff, coming to and from work, and for the large number of international delegates.’ Halsema’s spokesman told the paper the EMA offices and erotic centre will not be neighbours. In addition, the police consider the locations offer few risks and the sex work will be carried out inside the complex, not on the street.’ The city plans to replace 100 of the 249 brothel windows in the red light district with a multi-storey centre for prostitution and erotic entertainment, built by a private developer on city land. Outrageous.’ Nuisance ‘I know people living in the red light district don’t want us to suffer the same problems as they do,’ said Kees de Visser, from the Miranda neighbourhood association.
