The Citizens' Assembly should consider whether it is a good idea
to ban anti-democratic political parties.
David Farrell discusses this issue on pages 200 - 201 of his book
"Electoral Systems."
Israel and Germany currently have laws banning parties that are
totalitarian, anti-democratic, or that incite racism or hatred.
One possible way of making such a ban more democratic is by making
sure that the decision to ban a political party could only be made
by a jury.
