This petition was submitted during the 2019-2024 parliament
Rejected petition Future Covid restrictions to prioritise consideration of young people.
We seek a commitment from the government that all future legislation or restrictions put in place to control Covid 19, prioritise minimising the impact and promoting the recovery for young people (under 25s). Their recovery will take many years and require much more than a vaccine.
More details
Young people have suffered their second 'once-in-a-lifetime' catastrophe, the financial collapse and now the pandemic. Rules and remedies have prioritised older generations, protecting the assets and lives of baby-boomers who have benefitted from seventy-five years of medical and economic prosperity. It is time that the future generations, facing catastrophic climate change, economic hardship and social upheaval are given priority in governmental decision making. These people are the future.
