Allow shops to open without restrictions on Sunday but with worker protections

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Workers are already able to opt out of Sunday working and cannot be discriminated against if they do so. You can find out more here:

You could start a petition calling for the removal of restrictions on Sunday opening times, if that's what you'd like to see happen.
