Require all retailers to accept cash for products and services

Petition Details

Introduce legislation to make it compulsory for all retailers to accept cash for products and services in addition to other means of payment.

Additional Information

Many retailers have started preventing people from paying by cash. This has affected shops and other commercial outlets. This can negatively impact particular groups, especially older people, who may not have bank accounts and could have difficulties remembering a PIN, and people who are not able to open a bank account.
