Public petitions scheme

We welcome petitions and recognise that petitions are one way in which you can let us know your concerns.

All petitions sent or presented to us will receive an acknowledgement within 10 working days of receipt. This acknowledgement will set out what we plan to do with the petition.

We will treat something as a petition if it is identified as being a petition, or if it seems to us that it is intended to be a petition and it meets the criteria set out in the public petitions scheme.
