Hold an inquiry into misuse of public funds during the Covid-19 crisis.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Parliament should urgently hold an inquiry into the government's mishandling of public money through offering contracts to companies linked to its own advisors and MPs.
I believe that the people of this country have the right to know:

1. How much public money has been handed out through contracts to companies in order to help during the current crisis.

2. How many of those companies have fulfilled their contracts and if they haven't, why they haven't.

3. Why each company was selected for the contract.

4. Which of the companies have ties to the current government.

Why it was rejected

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