Closed petition delete cautions off record

Closed on

Please sign this petition to ask parliament to review the law on police cautions.
It is not right that a caution should stay on someones record for life, affecting potential careers.
Everyone makes silly mistakes from time to time.
what i am proposing is that cautions should be deleted off a persons record after perhaps 5 years
