- Full Recommendation
The Government should amend laws and policies, and reconsider draft legislation, that infringe on the right to freely associate and assemble with expressive groups or like-minded individuals and to promote peaceful ideals and activities. Non-governmental organizations, including unregistered associations, should be allowed to function freely, and their members should be able to operate in a safe environment. The Special Rapporteur echoes the recommendation made by the Special Rapporteur on the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association that the establishment of associations should be facilitated by a notification procedure that is simple, easily accessible, non-discriminatory and non-onerous or free of charge. Furthermore, the right to peaceful assembly should not be subject to prior authorization by the authorities, but at the most to a prior notification procedure, which should not be burdensome, and the Government should recognize spontaneous assemblies as exempted from prior notification.
