RA Ombudsman’s opinion on the amendments to the Law on "Marches,
Rallies and Demonstrations" in the main coincides with that of
the Venice Commission, the Department of the Information of the RA
Ombudsman’s Office reports.
Numerous citizens have asked the Ombudsman to dispute the conformity
of the recent amendments in the Constitutional Court (CC).
The Human Rights Ombudsman finds it expedient to appeal to the
CC after the disputed amendments are considered in the National
Assembly by Armenian parliamentarians and international experts’
panel on April 15-16.
"The authorities are to elaborate a complete programme of legal,
political, socio-economic and cultural reforms to eliminate the
deeply-rooted polarization in the society."
