CLD and LRWC Issue Comments on Cambodian Draft NGO Law

Having previously commented on the need for the Cambodian government to reconsider passage of their draft Law on Associations and Non-Governmental Organizations, the Centre for Law and Democracy welcomed news that the Ministry of the Interior is inviting representatives of civil society to present comments on its newest (fourth) draft of the Law.

CLD, together with Lawyers Rights Watch Canada (LRWC), have taken advantage of this consultation period by drafting an open letter to the Cambodian government containing a set of recommendations which we hope will be incorporated into the final version of the Law.
