Reform the Public Health (Control of Disease) Act 1984 urgency procedure
Reform section 45R of the PHA 1984 to prevent misuse of the urgency procedure to implement regulations without parliamentary scrutiny.
Any measures that may harm health or impact on freedom must be subject to an impact assessment & parliamentary review
The Health Protection (Coronavirus, Restrictions) (England) Regulations 2020 was enacted without an impact assessment & parliamentary review was undertaken post implementation.
There is increasing evidence that lockdowns & other NPIs caused harm to large numbers of people. Children's education was harmed, medical treatment delayed and people's health & fitness substantially reduced. Isolation caused mental health issues, especially for children, elderly & those living alone.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.
We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. We understand you'd like reform to Section 45R of the Public Health (Control of Disease) Act 1984, but we're not sure if you want all regulations made under this act to be subject to Parliamentary scrutiny and an impact assessment, or only those that the Government believes may harm health or impact on freedom.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
