Open-airs spared inclusion in new parades legislation

If the report in today's Newsletter is accurate then open-airs and other public meetings and protests will be exempt from the new legislation. 

The reports states that there were 410 responses, with many of them arguing against the inclusion of public meetings in this draft legislation. 

This is welcome news. Thankfully common sense has prevailed. However, it is worth remembering that this type of restrictive legislation should never have been entertained in the first place. 

We highlighted this issue some time ago.
