Paragraph
Paragraph text
Furthermore, the Special Rapporteur is of the opinion that notification should be required only for large assemblies or for assemblies where a certain degree of disruption is anticipated. In his view, such notification should be submitted a maximum of, for example, 48 hours prior to the day the assembly is planned to take place. The organizers should send a single notification to a designated primary authority, and not to multiple authorities (e.g one or several municipal authorities, as is sometimes done in the case of parades, and/or law enforcement agencies). The primary authority should communicate the details of the notification to all relevant bodies.
