# The Falkland Islands Constitution Order 2008, Paragraph 14: Protection of freedom of assembly and association


(1) Except with his or her own consent, no person shall be hindered in the enjoyment of his or her freedom of peaceful assembly and association, that is to say, his or her right to assemble freely and associate with other persons and in particular to form or belong to trade unions or other associations for the promotion and protection of his or her interests.
(2) Nothing contained in or done under the authority of any law shall be held to be inconsistent with or in contravention of this section to the extent that the law in question makes provision—
(a) that is reasonably required—
(i) in the interests of defence, internal security, public safety, public order, public morality or public health; or
(ii) for the purpose of protecting the rights and freedoms of other persons; or
(b) that imposes restrictions on public officers that are reasonably required for the proper performance of their functions,
except so far as that provision or, as the case may be, the thing done under its authority is shown not to be reasonably justifiable in a democratic society.
