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 Increase punishments for illegal dumping of sewage in UK waters
The Government should create harsher punishments on those who illegally dump sewage in bodies of water in and around the UK.
More details
I live around the coast and know of the large verity of sea wildlife, not only that but much of the water around the UK is free for all to use. However some water companies have been illegally dumping sewage into the water and get insufficient backlash. I believe it is unfair to let this foul practice continue and should be stopped through harsher fines.
