Closed 2,505 signatures

What the petition asks

To form a "Holiday Council" to include the travel industry and Education Department to look at viable solutions in order to reduce pricing in the set school holiday period for parents and teachers and anyone restricted to holiday with their family in these periods.
On behalf of parents, teachers and anyone restricted by the school holidays - we would like the Government to help create and be part of a "Holiday Council" to include the Travel Ind. & the Education Depts., in order to discuss (not to control or interfere with private business) viable solutions in order to HELP in what most parents want, which is much more fairer pricing in these set times - No ONE party is to blame but solutions are available through debate and change by all.
