Fines will be imposed on those establishments which do not come up to standard (!)

Reminding us of the times when all the film censors insisted in inspecting pornographic movies, Madrid Ayuntamiento has announced it is going to inspect all the sex shops in the Spanish capital this month.

It comes after irregularities were detected in 72% of such establishments last year, and the new inspections will check the quality of the items on sale. Checks will also be made to ensure that children cannot gain access to the shops.

It will be the job of nine inspectors to visit all the sex shops in the city, checking on municipal licences, that each item is clearly priced and that the labelling of the products is correct, particularly in textile and industrial items.

After the inspections have been carried out, a series of fines are expected to be issued against those establishments which do not meet the correct legislation.
