In plain language
Even if your BVLOS permit allows you to fly over people, you must still design your flight path to spend as little time as possible directly above them.
Requirement as structured
CAAS states that even in medium and high-risk BVLOS categories where overflying people is permitted, applicants must minimise the flight time of the UA over persons.
Original regulatory text
While the higher risk categories (medium and high) permit overflying persons, the applicant should minimise flight time of the UA over persons.
