    votes for the changes.

    project said that the reforms have been presented to the Council of
    Europe Venice Committee. In particular the procedures of providing
    verified information have been clarified. The organizers of the
    demonstration, marches, mass meetings and rallies should inform
    the correspondent state bodies five days before the event. The
    correspondent bodies have right to deny the request if the authorized
    bodies find not secure points. The requestors can appeal to court
