i do not believe the law has changed. The answer is, yes, with restrictions - But street prostitution is illegal in New South Wales and Queensland; New South Wales and Victoria license brothels. In Queensland prostitutes can work out of residental or commercial properties as long as there is only one prostitute at the location.
