Change the 100 year rule for public viewing of a National Census

Petition Details

National Census forms have to be filled in every ten years by law. However public viewing of those forms are only available after 100 years have passed.
The latest Census available to view is 1911. This makes Family research very difficult.

Additional Information

Even though people are living longer opening up the records to 70 or 80 year old census would not cause problems to many living persons.
