Prevent fireworks being purchased over the counter

Petition Details

Stop fireworks being purchased in shops.
Let local town rugby/football grounds arrange displays.

Fireworks are being set off all year round, it is not necessary. A lot of animals are petrified of fireworks, they are disruptive and there's no need for them to be purchased.
The local towns have grounds where displays can be organised and monitored.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you are concerned about existing rules regarding the purchase and release of fireworks, but 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.
