A meeting of PONGHO members has agreed that recommendations regarding the
\nimpending Review of sex worker services in Queensland be made to Communicable
\nDiseases Branch of Queensland Health.
\nThe PONGHO recommendations are:
\n1. A reference group, including sex worker representatives, be established to
\noversee the process of the Review, eg. to compile Terms of Reference for the
\nReview, and for ongoing oversight of the Review process.
\n2. The Review be undertaken by consultants who have experience in working
\nwith sex workers
\n3. The Review should include input from a broad diversity of sex workers
\nthrough a range of mechanisms, including existing sex worker groups.
\n4. Sex workers and sex worker organisations need to provide input to the
\nReview. With input also sought from NGO\u2019s and other stakeholders currently
\nproviding services to this target population.
\n5. The Review process should recognise HIV, hepatitis C and Sexually
\nTransmitted Infections in the broader social determinants of health, and via the
\ncreation of an enabling environment.
\n6. The Review should recognise the whole-of-government approach of the
\nQueensland HIV, hepatitis C and STI strategy. Thus, the Review will identify
\nkey areas of future attention by Departments other than Queensland Health,
\nand areas of funding other than CDB allocations.
\n7. The Review report should include the methodology used, execution and
\noutcomes of the Review, and recommendations made as a result of the
\nReview, and be made available to key stakeholders.
\nThese recommendations were communicated to Queensland Health 26th July 2007<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
