Important:

This petition was submitted during the 2019-2024 parliament

Rejected petition Ban fireworks and let them only be used at organised displays.

Change the law on sales of fireworks in shops and supermarkets. They cause so much distress and are literally selling explosives to anyone. Only available to large registered displays

More details

Animals particularly dogs are terrified of fireworks and loud bangs. We need to stop the sale of fireworks to control the bangs and displays to just organised larger displays when we know they timings. We can then take our pets away from the area whilst they go off. Or make sure our animal or pet is comfortable and feels safe. My dog had a 3 hour panic attack tonight and it’s just not fair on them.
