This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you're concerned about the noise caused by fireworks, however we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. Fireworks marketed as 'silent' still produce some noise.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, a ban on fireworks or a ban on certain types of fireworks, such as aerial fireworks.

Or you may wish to sign one of these petitions, which call for similar action:

"Reduce the maximum noise level for consumer fireworks from 120 to 90 decibels"
https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/738192

"Reduce the sound of fireworks to under 80 decibels for humans and animals"
https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/739674

"Limit the sale of fireworks to those running local council approved events only"
https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/732559

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
