What the petition asks

The government need to look at how debt recovery is looked at. All aspects are now failing from customer service to sneaky loopholes to use scaremongering. These debt collection firms are now taking advantage and the result being people are losing jobs to their debt.
For parliament to look at how debt is to be recovered over the next few years, while everyone readjusts to working full time and getting themselves back into a better situation. Before they lose jobs to debt.
