Changes to Assembly Petition Arrangements

By March 8, 2017September 22nd, 2023Uncategorized

In response to recommendations from the fourth Assembly’s Petitions Committee report published in February 2016, the Assembly has now agreed a motion to amend the arrangements for Public Petitions.

The new rules will mean that:

  1. The petitioner must be resident in Wales, or in the case of organisations – have a base in Wales
  2. The threshold of support for submitting a petition will be increased from 10 to 50
