Police have stressed that the conditions set out for political party meeting permits will not be reviewed for now.
This follows concerns raised by the Fiji Labour Party.
Police Director of Operations SSP Rusiate Tudravu said police presence will remain during the meetings, the party has to stick to the agenda provided in the permit application and no intimidating language or threat must be uttered in the meetings which would cause alarm to the general public.
SSP Tudravu also said the Fiji Labour Party should visit the police station if they want to raise any concerns.
However, Labour Party leader Mahendra Chaudhry said they should have the freedom to hold the discussions in the meetings.
Chaudhry said they will raise these concerns with the Constitutional Commission when it starts its consultations from next month.
SSP Tudravu maintained that the Fiji Labour Party should not be worried about the conditions if they do not have an ulterior motive.
