Voorstel van wet van het lid Van Klaveren tot wijziging van het Wetboek van Strafrecht in verband met een verruiming van de vrijheid van meningsuiting

Stage submittedUpdated 5mo ago

This legislative proposal seeks to amend the Dutch Criminal Code to broaden the legal definition and protections surrounding freedom of expression. The goal is to ensure that the law better reflects modern standards of free speech and prevents the over-criminalization of opinions. This change primarily affects individuals and legal entities subject to the Criminal Code, potentially reducing the likelihood of criminal prosecution for certain types of public expression.
