It is a crime for a person who is caring for you, supervising you or has authority over to have sex with you while you are between the ages of 16 to 18.
There is an exception to this. If you are aged 14-18 years old, there may be a legal defence that applies. According to this defence, if you are aged 14-18 years old, and the person in a position of care or authority over you is less than two years older than you, you can legally agree to have sex with them.
Some examples of people who are in a position of care or supervision over you would include your teacher, sports coach, youth worker, counsellor, foster carer, religious instructor, health professional, or police officer.
