New restrictions could be placed on Aberdeen strip clubs by January 2021, councillors have decided.
The council’s licensing committee unanimously agreed yesterday that some form of licensing should be placed on sexual entertainment venues (SEVs) in the city, with further consultation due on what shape that could take.
It is expected any new rules will be implemented by January 2021.
A limit on their number, or even a ban on such premises, are part of a range of options which could be implemented.
Other options alongside limits could include full details, names, dates of birth and nationality of performers being made available for inspection and immigration status checks to guard against human trafficking.
SEV bosses have previously argued against changing the status quo, arguing that the venues provide work for women in a safe environment.
Only six Scottish council areas have the venues, with consultations already launched in Glasgow and Edinburgh, and planned in Fife, while Dundee said it had made “no decision” on the issue.
