This petition was submitted during the 2017-2019 parliament

Rejected petition Repeal the Sugar Tax on all fizzy drinks.

We believe that it is the responsibility of parents to ensure that their children do not consume too much sugar, and that adults should have the freedom to make the choice over how much sugar is in their drinks. Also, the Tax has had a disproportionate financial impact on the poorest in society.
