From Maajid Nawaz's Quilliam Foundation, a moderate Muslim reforming organisation.
The whole story on Burka, veiling, etc.
Short form: accoding to Islamic doctrine, and confirmed by Al-Azhar University, the most authoritative university in the Islamic world: modesty is required, but neither Niqab nor Burka is required.
Legally: banning the Niqab or Burka is fine.
As many European and some Muslim countries have done. The latter mainly because of security concerns: worries that men dress up in the burka to commit crimes.
