Deputy minister hints at review to PAA's 10-day notice for rally

Proposed amendments to the Peaceful Assembly Act 2012 will also touch on the current 10-day notice provision for rally organisers, according to Deputy Home Minister Azis Jamman.

"One of the bill that we will table is amendments to the PAA. Just wait for it," said the Sepanggar MP.The PAA was enacted to replace Section 27 of the Police Act 1967, which means police permits for mass assemblies will no longer be required. When pointed out that Muhyiddin had yesterday said organisers of last Saturday's Women's March in Kuala Lumpur held the event, despite no such requirements under PAA, Azis insisted that the latter was referring to the 10-day notice provision.
