Quote
"The administrative process for the registration of NGOs should be applied with a minimum margin of discretion provided. The government ministry or agency responsible for the registration of NGOs should publish rules and regulations applicable, and forms that explain the process. It should provide assistance to NGOs that are seeking formal legal status, and it should be required to provide a written statement of reasons for any refusal to register an NGO...Decisions not to register an NGO or to terminate one should be appealable, both administratively and to an independent court."
