“Persistently” is defined as behaviour that takes place on two or more occasions in any three-month period10. If you have any ‘Prostitutes’ Cautions’ recorded against you (see page 72 for details) these can be used as evidence of persistence.
“Soliciting” includes inviting possible customers with things like words, winks, glances, gestures, smiles or seductive movements. It also includes loitering (see below), either on foot or in a vehicle, where you have no intention to move on. It can also include sitting in a window if you are clearly soliciting, for instance wearing revealing clothing, sitting under a red light, in an area where prostitutes are sought (red light area or ‘beat’).
“Loitering” is lingering, or hanging around, with no intention to move on either by foot or in a vehicle.
