What the petition asks
The hospitality industry has proved its self a safe sector during the current global crisis with in Wales, small business may never reopen again with these current changes being enforced as of Friday 4th December, if any sectors should be changing there opening times it is schools and supermarkets.
How many of you have been in to a venue where refreshments are served and been asked to fill in track and trace, sanitised your hands 50 times a day.
For the company’s who are independent they buy alcohol in bulk ready for the month of Christmas and we can no longer sell it, it goes out of date and small company’s are out of pocket.
You go in to a supermarket there are hand sanitizer stations but they are not compulsory like the hospitality industry an no track and trace maybe that is the sector you should be closing and make everything online.

Why it was rejected
It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
Covid-19 restrictions in Wales are a matter for the Welsh Government and Parliament. That means that the UK Government and Parliament can't look into it.
