This petition was submitted during the 2019-2024 parliament
Rejected petition Ban disposable BBQ’s in public places.
Ban the use of BBQ’s in public areas and beauty spots.
More details
There is an increasing number of abandoned BBQ’s left in beauty spots. People do not take them home as they are hot. They are invariably abandoned for others to clean up. Aside from the waste issue, there is a proven fire risk plus damage to council property (benches and bins). Children and animals digging in sand are finding buried BBQ’s which presents further hazards.
