Under the Bill, the power to designate an area within which it would be a criminal offence to conceal one’s identity depends on the police having a reasonable belief that a public procession or assembly “which constitutes a protest” is taking or may take place. There is no definition of “protest” in the Bill, which introduces an element of uncertainty, when the ECHR requires any interference with the right to protest to be accessible and foreseeable.
