This petition was submitted during the 2010-2015 parliament
Petition Water Chlorination and health risks ban or restrict it's usage.
More details
Research has shown that water chlorination causes and or exacerbates a multitude of health problems, including asthma,skin and eye irration and may lead to heart attacks.
As it is used in not only drinking water but for swimming pools this is a serious problem and must cause many hidden costs in NHS treatment, time away from work, and much stress and discomfort.
There are alternatives one example is MIOX and where swimmers were training for competition when the water treatment was changed to MIOX the use of inhalers was reduced and eradicated.
In such an all pervading item such as our water supply it is time to ban or severly restrict the use of chlorine.
