Section 27 of the Police & Crime Act 2009 expanded Schedule 3 of the Local Government (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1982 that dealt with Sex Establishments, i.e. sex shops, to include additional types of activities such as strip-tease, lap and pole dancing and hostess bars. These new categories are to be known as Sexual Entertainment Venues (SEVs).
