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 scope of freedom of expression. The goal is to ensure that legal protections for speech are more robust, potentially reducing the risk of criminal prosecution for expressing opinions. This change would primarily affect individuals and organizations involved in public debate, journalists, and those currently subject to specific speech-related restrictions under the existing criminal law.
