Petition Action

Make it illegal to sell event tickets for more than face value

Additional Information

A petition to move to make it illegal to sell any event ticket, for example theatre or concert tickets, for anything other than their face value. The aim being to clamp down on the "secondary market" and ticket touts selling tickets for overly inflated prices purely to make a profit. This will ensure that genuine fans get to enjoy events and hopefully that more events will become available to a wider proportion of society.
