Judge in summary proceedings: 1 May manifestation FNV will go through in Oosterpark

Details

This afternoon, the judge in interlocutory (summary) proceedings of the administrative law division of the district court of Amsterdam decided that the manifestation organized by The Netherlands Trade Union Confederation (in Dutch: Federatie Nederlandse Vakbeweging, or 'FNV') that is set to take place next Sunday - Labor Day - in the Oosterpark, can go through.

This was determined within the context of summary proceedings that were initiated against the mayor of Amsterdam by the Foundation for the Reparation of Oosterpark (in Dutch: Stichting Herstel Oosterpark). Its request was that the decision by the mayor with regard to the manifestation be suspended, or that it would be otherwise decided that the 1st of May celebrations in the Oosterpark would not be allowed to take place. FNV was represented in this case by lawyers Marq Wijngaarden and (during the court hearing) Brechtje Vossenberg.
