Extend notices of marriage by 12 months for weddings affected by Covid 19
Rejected
21 signatures
What the petition asks
Many couples have had to postpone their weddings amid the Covid 19 pandemic to dates beyond the parameters of their original notices. As such I would like councils to extend the notice periods by 12 months to reflect the fact that these postponements were out of the control of those affected.
Why it was rejected
