Asociación Nacional de Empresarios de Locales de Alterne

[5] The official business model for the member clubs is to allow prostitutes to work independently of the venue, paying only for the rent of rooms and drinks.

[6] However, in a ruling from the High Court of Justice of Andalusia,[7] the "Mossos d'Esquadra and the testimonies of many sex workers" show this is not the case.

[11] It also "defends the exclusion of minors and drugs in their businesses [and] base the activities on the free will of the prostitute, the client and the entrepreneur of the clubs".

[22] In 2003, ANELA offered the councils of Valencia and Madrid funding for a pilot scheme to make hotels available to street prostitutes during a trial period.

[26] That same year ANELA criticised a campaign to persuade men to abstain from using the services of prostitution, which was organised by the city council of Seville.

[28] The former secretary, José Luis Roberto, resigned in 2011 because his extreme right wing activities could give a bad image to the businesses associated with ANELA.
