Reform the arrest procedures of an under 18
I’m a politics student campaignaing against the unjust difference in arrest procedure for those under 18 and those over 18.
Under 18’s simply have to look suspicious to be reprimanded however those over 18 have to be caught red handed or have sufficient evidence against them.
The inequalities on arrest criteria can lead to issues at home and School due to unnecessary arrests.
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:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, you could start a new petition asking for a specific change to the code of practice for arrests (contained within the Police and Criminal Evidence codes), if that's what you want to happen. You can find out more about the codes here:
