Install CCTV Cameras on the High Road, Barnet

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

I would like the Barnet Council to install CCTV cameras in the High Road as there is none, and the residents don't feel safe anymore.

Lately, loads of burglaries happened, both cars and houses.
On social media groups of Barnet, I read quite a lot of stories of burglary. This is getting quite constant, we would like some cameras to be installed, as not everyone has a camera in the front of their house.
My car has been stolen in November, by the burglar scanning my car key, then the next day two more happened in my area, and so it went.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.

Decisions about installation of CCTV on local roads are a matter for landowners and the relevant local authority, not the UK Government or Parliament.
