As far as I'm aware working on the street is illegal in Victoria (Australia) but operating within a brothel is fine. I think Australia's prostitution industry is fairly well regulated since it doesn't seem to be a huge problem, it's not big in the news very often. Since it's not really a big issue as far as I know, I'm not too sure of the pulic opinion towards these regulations but I would guess that most people are supportive of the brothel laws. I don't think prostitution should be an illegal activity but should still be regulated - it gives the police time to fight the 'real crime' and doesn't turn ordinary natural people into criminals.
