Councils don't proactively go out and 'crackdown' on massage shops, they have to act on complaints raised by rate payers and the general public.

Investigators are just doing their job, though I did laugh at the 'putting his body on the line' comment.....it is not like he Cameron Smith lining up for his 400th NRL game! Just lay back and cop the wristie lol....

If you really want to get angry at someone, it's the do-gooders, the competing shop owners, the disgruntled ex-employees and sometimes even pissed off customers that raised the complaint in the first place and made the council get off their fat arse and investigate the matters.

As for those two shops I have seen and heard some interesting stories. Wynyard Massage MLs are instructed to wash their used tissues in a hand basin. Walking past SS recently, a rubbish truck was across the road collecting rubbish. I seen a girl dart out of SS with two full rubbish bags, cross the road at breakneck speed and dump the evidence straight unto the back of the truck!
