Increase the purchase age of fireworks and restrict use to organised events.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

There are far too many kids using fireworks in streets and parks, even posting them through letterboxes causing harm and damage to people and their lives. This needs to stop and fireworks need to be treated and sold like the dangerous explosive items they are.

Allow fireworks to organised events or licensed people which can be obtained through the police.

Why it was rejected

There was already a petition about this issue. Duplicates are rejected so signatures collect in one place.

Ban the sale of fireworks to the public. Displays for licenced venues only.

Raise the age of sale, of fireworks, to the general public from 18 to 25.
