A/HRC/32/36/Add.3 571. The Special Rapporteur reminds the authorities of the request from his last Observations Report (A/HRC/29/25/Add.3, para. 97) and seeks additional information about the measures taken to ensure everyone in Uzbekistan can exercise the right to freedom of association and can carry out their peaceful and legitimate human rights activities without fear of restrictions or criminalization of any sort. 572. In this regard, he reminds the Government of Uzbekistan of its positive obligation to ensure that civil society, including human rights defenders, can carry out their legitimate work free in a safe and enabling environment without fear of threats or acts of intimidation or harassment of any sort. Country visit 573. The Special Rapporteur reminds the Government of his pending requests to visit the country, as indicated by his letter sent in 2011 and 2013. He trusts that such a visit would allow him to examine first-hand issues related to his mandate, identify good practices and formulate pertinent recommendations to relevant stakeholders. He looks forward to receiving a positive reply at the earliest possible opportunity. He reiterates that Human Rights Council resolution 15/21, which established his mandate, and 24/5, which renewed it for an additional period of three years, both call upon States to consider favourably his requests for visits.
