Petition Action

Increase the number of questions the opposition can ask the government at PMQ’s.

Petition Details

Increasing the number of questions the opposition can ask at PMQs from 6 to a minimum of 12 will enhance accountability, ensure the government addresses more pressing issues, and allow greater scrutiny of its decisions and actions. This promotes a more transparent and effective democratic process.

Additional Information

We want the Government to increase the number of questions the opposition can ask in PMQs to ensure greater accountability and transparency in our democracy. This provides more opportunities to challenge the Government’s decisions and raise concerns that matter to the public. By expanding the process, we can strengthen democratic debate and ensure that the voices of people across the country are better represented. It is essential that the Government is fully held to account for a better future.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament as a whole aren't responsible for the issue you raise. Order in the Commons is the responsibility of the Speaker personally, and the Prime Minister is responsible for answers to questions.
