Summary
The Council of State had already suspended in 2023 a similar decree, taken every summer since 2012 by the municipality of Mandelieu. The administrative court of Nice suspended on Thursday 6 August an order taken by the city of Mandelieu-La Napoule, in the Alpes-Maritimes, prohibiting access to the beaches of people wearing an outfit, including the burkini, ostentatically demonstrating their religious affiliation.
