This petition was submitted during the 2015–2017 Conservative government

Rejected petition Ban the production of loud explosive fireworks.

My little terrier is absolutely terrified of fireworks that bang. Around Bonfire Night (which quite often now extends for 2 weeks) he barks constantly and shakes. Not only is this very distressing to witness but it causes a nuisance to my neighbours.

More details

If firework production could be limited to the Roman Candle type without bangs it would be better for everyone.
