Bill: Right of Assembly Bill
Details
Submitted by[?]: United Liberal Alliance
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: January 2042
Description[?]:
| Whilst we recognise that there are occassionally protests by citizens which are deliberatly as threat to public safety and we condemn them, the majority of protests and assemblies are peaceful, with any that do turn violent doing so through the work of a small group who seek to sabotage and take over the protest. This bill will ensure that all citizens are free to assemble and protest without intereference from the police. The police will still be able to monitor the protest and arrest anyone who is breaking the law, but will not be able to break up a protest just because they deem that it is or will be a threat. |

| Random fact: In Culturally Protected nations, it is the responsibility of players to ensure the candidate boxes on their Party Overview screens are filled in with appropriate names. If a player is allotted seats in a Cabinet bill and has not filled in names for the relevant candidate position, then the program will automatically fill in the positions with names which might not necessarily be appropriate for the Cultural Protocols. |
