Rejected petition Make the lethal neck restraint illegal during the arrest process.

Rejected on 14 August 2020

Have a review of all methods of breathing restriction during arrest.

Too many people have already died in custody through restraint methods that urgently need review. It is the job of the police to keep the public safe not endanger them.
