Give mums breastfeeding rights in public places stop the discrimination
We need to stand up and fight for mums to have breastfeeding rights in public places so that they don't get discriminated against
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Women breastfeeding in public are already protected by the Equality Act 2010. The Act states that it is sex discrimination to treat a woman less favourably because she is breastfeeding. The Act applies to anyone providing services, benefits, facilities and premises to the public.
If you would like Parliament to change to the law, to provide additional protection for women who are breastfeeding, you could start a new petition calling clearly for the specific change you want. You'll need to give your full name to start a petition.
