Petition Action

Remove the Manchester clean air zones it is the opposite to what was voted for.

Petition Details

Greater Manchester Clean Air Plan proposals will introduce a daily fee for non-compliant vehicles entering the proposed Clean Air Zone. The following indicative daily penalties are estimates for the proposals.
This is contrary to the referendum Manchester voted in

Additional Information

As this is directly opposite to what Manchester voted for in a referendum these plans should be automatically cancelled.
These plans should not be considered unless Manchester is given a new referendum and this wins by a significant amount.
This is simply we will tax on the working class who cant afford new cars.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions must call for a specific action that the UK Government or Parliament are directly responsible for. Decisions about local clean air zones are a matter for the relevant local authorities, not the Government or Parliament. As a result it is not possible for the Government or Parliament to take the action you have requested.

You could raise this issue with a local councillor, who represents you. You can use this page to find out who your local councillors are, and how to contact them: www.gov.uk/find-your-local-councillors

You can also petition your local authority directly. Find out how to petition your council here: democracy.manchester.gov.uk/mgEPetitionListDisplay.aspx
