Masks to be preferred not mandatory

Petition Details

Remove the mandatory rule for face coverings in non medical places, including but not limited to schools, travel and shops.

Additional Information

The mandatory face covering rule conflicts with human rights. The protection of a few can never be at the cost of restrictions of normal life and function to the many.

It also presents issues of not being able to clearly identify criminals, is a danger to the safety of children at risk of abduction and gives free reign without identification to person who wish to cause harm or break laws.
