Ban the sale and possession of fireworks to the general public unless they're silent. The public are able to buy and use fireworks from October through to new year. This is unfair to those who suffer from the loud noise.

- 305 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 310 - 1 added in the past 24hrs)
I would like the Government to scrap the stated Bill. We believe it is imposing on the rights to protest of public bodies. This bill essentially forces public bodies to consider taking out contracts with companies who operate in territories that they believe may be acting immorally.

- 85 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 205 - 1 added in the past 24hrs)

Only allow sale and use of fireworks on 5 November and New Year's Eve
- 45 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 47 - 1 added in the past 24hrs)
Stop the sale and use of fireworks apart from for the 5th of November and New Year's Eve due to people using them too frequently. I think this would give people with animals the time to prepare themselves the best they can. One or two nights a year of fireworks is more than enough.
