text: (b) If the meeting is being held in a public place in close proximity to office buildings during business hours; or (c) If the meeting is held in a private place adjacent to or in a residential area, after 11 p.m.; or (d) If the meeting is being held in a public place that is not a designated place for the holding of public meetings and other members of the public will be using parts of that place for other purposes during the proposed meeting time. The licensing officer will not apply these guidelines rigidly. His instructions require him to consider all relevant circumstances of place, time and type of meeting before determining limitations and prohibition on the use of amplification equipment. 71. Further information was also requested by the Human Rights Committee on an incident which took place on International Women's Day, 16 March 1988 (CCPR/C/SR.857, para. 64). 72. The view of the Commissioner of Police was that the event in question was not a procession, which is simply an organized movement from one place to another for a common purpose, but a mixture of a public meeting, where views are expressed on a matter of public concern, and an "entertainment involving singing, dancing and plays or sketches. 73. The Commissioner of Police remains of the view that Statue Square (which is in the central district of Hong Kong) generally, but particularly on a Sunday afternoon, is not a suitable venue for such a "celebration - there are too many people there using it for other purposes. Victoria Park in Causeway Bay and other areas have been designated as suitable for public meetings, and if the application had been made earlier the Commissioner would have refused the licence and suggested that the celebration be held in a CCPR/C/58/Add.6 page 126 
analysis: The text appears to be discussing the guidelines for holding public meetings and events, specifically in relation to the use of amplification equipment. The context seems to be focused on the management of public spaces and the potential impact of events on other users of those spaces. The text also references a specific incident on International Women's Day, which suggests that the topic may be related to human rights and social events.
