AMSTERDAM (Reuters) -The European Medicines Agency (EMA) is not happy with a plan under consideration by the City of Amsterdam to create a new "erotic centre" near its headquarters, the drugs regulator said on Tuesday.

Amsterdam has been considering relocating legal prostitution away from its historic red light district for years and in February announced three possible locations.
