{"links":{"self":"https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/766761.json"},"data":{"type":"petition","id":766761,"attributes":{"action":"Ban households from burning their rubbish in their gardens","background":"We want the Government to ban people from burning rubbish in their garden instead of disposing or recycling it as I believe they should. I think having daily fires in built-up urban areas is beyond a joke. It can make people ill and affect people's daily lives.","additional_details":"While there are restrictions on what you can burn in your garden, where I live fires are still a daily occurrence around the whole area, with multiple garden fires a day. As a result I feel you cannot hang washing out to dry, let your kids play in the garden in the summer without having to call them in as the smoke is billowing and filling gardens, and you have to keep your windows closed even in the summer. It can affect people's health and breathing. I think most of the people in my area burn their rubbish instead of disposing of it accordingly.","committee_note":"","state":"open","signature_count":40,"closing_date":"2026-11-06","created_at":"2026-04-07T19:54:12.397Z","updated_at":"2026-05-12T10:49:30.000Z","rejected_at":null,"opened_at":"2026-05-06T15:56:27.243Z","closed_at":null,"moderation_threshold_reached_at":"2026-04-07T20:05:20.000Z","response_threshold_reached_at":null,"government_response_at":null,"debate_threshold_reached_at":null,"debate_scheduled_on":null,"scheduled_debate_date":null,"debate_outcome_at":null,"creator_name":"Dean Mills","rejection":null,"government_response":null,"debate":null,"departments":[{"acronym":"MHCLG","name":"Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government","url":"https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/ministry-of-housing-communities-local-government"}],"topics":[],"signatures_by_country":[{"name":"United Kingdom","code":"GB","signature_count":40}],"signatures_by_constituency":[{"name":"Amber Valley","ons_code":"E14001066","mp":"Linsey Farnsworth MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Bath","ons_code":"E14001080","mp":"Wera Hobhouse MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Birmingham Hodge Hill and Solihull North","ons_code":"E14001095","mp":"Rt Hon Liam Byrne MP","signature_count":2},{"name":"Birmingham Yardley","ons_code":"E14001100","mp":"Jess Phillips MP","signature_count":6},{"name":"Broxbourne","ons_code":"E14001139","mp":"Lewis Cocking MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Chorley","ons_code":"E14001170","mp":"Rt Hon Sir Lindsay Hoyle MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Colne Valley","ons_code":"E14001177","mp":"Paul Davies MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Derby South","ons_code":"E14001194","mp":"Baggy Shanker MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Dudley","ons_code":"E14001204","mp":"Sonia Kumar MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"East Wiltshire","ons_code":"E14001217","mp":"Danny Kruger MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Eastbourne","ons_code":"E14001219","mp":"Josh Babarinde MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Ellesmere Port and Bromborough","ons_code":"E14001222","mp":"Justin Madders MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Exeter","ons_code":"E14001231","mp":"Steve Race MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Gillingham and Rainham","ons_code":"E14001246","mp":"Naushabah Khan MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Havant","ons_code":"E14001275","mp":"Alan Mak MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Manchester Withington","ons_code":"E14001354","mp":"Jeff Smith MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Mid Buckinghamshire","ons_code":"E14001360","mp":"Greg Smith MP","signature_count":2},{"name":"Mid Dorset and North Poole","ons_code":"E14001363","mp":"Vikki Slade MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Newton Abbot","ons_code":"E14001381","mp":"Martin Wrigley MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"North East Cambridgeshire","ons_code":"E14001390","mp":"Rt Hon Steve Barclay MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"North West Norfolk","ons_code":"E14001405","mp":"James Wild MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Plymouth Sutton and Devonport","ons_code":"E14001427","mp":"Luke Pollard MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Rochester and Strood","ons_code":"E14001447","mp":"Lauren Edwards MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Salisbury","ons_code":"E14001460","mp":"Rt Hon John Glen MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"South Norfolk","ons_code":"E14001489","mp":"Ben Goldsborough MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Stretford and Urmston","ons_code":"E14001528","mp":"Andrew Western MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Stroud","ons_code":"E14001529","mp":"Dr Simon Opher MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Taunton and Wellington","ons_code":"E14001540","mp":"Gideon Amos MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Torbay","ons_code":"E14001551","mp":"Steve Darling MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Walthamstow","ons_code":"E14001563","mp":"Ms Stella Creasy MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Warrington North","ons_code":"E14001564","mp":"Charlotte Nichols MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Widnes and Halewood","ons_code":"E14001584","mp":"Derek Twigg MP","signature_count":1},{"name":"Brecon, Radnor and Cwm Tawe","ons_code":"W07000085","mp":"David Chadwick MP","signature_count":1}],"signatures_by_region":[{"name":"North West","ons_code":"B","signature_count":6},{"name":"Yorkshire and The Humber","ons_code":"D","signature_count":1},{"name":"East Midlands","ons_code":"E","signature_count":2},{"name":"West Midlands","ons_code":"F","signature_count":9},{"name":"East of England","ons_code":"G","signature_count":4},{"name":"London","ons_code":"H","signature_count":1},{"name":"South East","ons_code":"J","signature_count":6},{"name":"South West","ons_code":"K","signature_count":10},{"name":"Wales","ons_code":"L","signature_count":1}],"other_parliamentary_business":[]}}}
