Institute a Public Space Ventilation Bill

Petition Details

Regulate that that every public space should have a visible CO2 monitor with a CO2 limit of 800ppm.

Fund a ventilation grant system that public institutions can access ie Schools, Hospitals.

Additional Information

It is clear that regulation is needed to ensure public safety.

The public need to be kept safe from airborne pathogens ie Covid, RSV, Strep A.

Covid 19 is causing death, disability and long term risk in the UK at unacceptable levels. This is preventable.

The UK Government are ensuring their workers safety by installing ventilation against airborne viruses. Everyone deserves the same standard.

Action is needed now.

We need a Public Space Ventilation Bill.

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're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

Under regulation 6 of the Workplace Health, Safety and Welfare Regulations, employers must ‘ensure that every enclosed workplace is ventilated by a sufficient quantity of fresh or purified air’. It is up to the individual buildings management team how they ensure the correct levels of ventilation.


You could start a new petition calling on the Government to make CO2 monitors mandatory for public buildings or you could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
