Abstract
This chapter looks into the crimes of rape, sexual offences, and assault as consolidated by the Sexual Offences Act 2003. The severity of sexual offences depends on whether the individual was assaulted by penetration or touching and whether the individual was over or under 13 or 16 years old. Several sections of the Sexual Offences Act 2003 address the offences of voyeurism, indecent exposure, and public decency. The chapter cites the offence of administering a substance against another person under the intent of committing a sexual offence. Meanwhile, the first section of the Street Offences Act 1959 disallows people over 18 to persistently loiter or solicit in a street or public place for prostitution.
