We’re waiting for a new Petitions Committee
Petitions had to stop because of the recent general election. Once a new Petitions Committee is set up by the House of Commons, petitions will start again.

Closed petition Review and reduce restrictions on the operation of drones and model flyers
The Government should review current restrictions on the operation of drones and model flyers, and reduce these to lessen the burden on hobbyists.
More details
Currently most operators are required to register and must keep drones or model flyers in direct view. We believe operators should not have to register and should be allowed to rely on First-person view (FPV) to operate Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS).
Some restrictions, such as keeping below a certain height, and not entering airports, should be kept in place.
