Important:

This petition was submitted during the 2019-2024 parliament

Rejected petition Continue legal requirement to wear face masks in enclosed public places

Think above covers it. Continue “Current exceptions” I.e. those in force as at 5th July 2021

More details

Wearing face masks is for others not self. I do not have faith in everyone acting to protect others when significantly inconvenient to themselves.
