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.

Rejected petition Only allow organised firework events or only manufacture of silent fireworks

There are so many pet owners in the UK I would love there to be only organised events and not allow for use at homes/back gardens or open land or only manufacture silent fireworks. They dont have to make a noise

More details

I live in a small village where there are so many dog and cat owners and there is nothing more distressing than trying to console a terrified pet. In fact you fact console them at all.
