NGOs rally against bill to keep them in check
Non-governmental organisations held a protest on Thursday demanding the dropping of draft legislation aimed at monitoring and regulating their activities.
Members of several NGOs converged at the Social Development and Human Security Ministry to air their opposition to the Operations of Not-for-Profit Organisations bill (NPO bill).
The proposed legislation would require non-profit organisations to state their objectives, disclose sources of funding, and ban activities deemed a threat to national security.
