Change the law to introduce restrictions on where convicted paedophiles can live

Closed 172 signatures

What the petition asks

Following recently finding out a paedophile was living on my street, a street not only full of children but also by a primary school. It got me thinking how many more situations are like this and that there should be tighter restrictions to protect children.
