Important:

This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament

Petition Place strict restrictions on numbers and locations of mosques.

More details

We ask the government to:
Set very strict restrictions on the building of new, or conversion of old buildings (many unsuitable in size and location) into mosques in terms of numbers and location.
Set a permanent limit on the number of mosques that may be built (new builds or conversions) with no exceptions.
Restrictions placed on the types of buildings that may be converted into mosques to prevent the speculative purchase and subsequent retrospective planning applications that are blighting local authorities. No more community halls, public houses, cinemas or bingo halls to be converted into mosques or other places of worship.
Retrospective planning to be overhauled as it is all too often used as a get out for such developments.
We feel the above, if adopted, will save endless hours fighting applications that should never have been submitted in the first instance.
Please sign this e-petition for effective legislation on proper control of mosque developments.
