Prohibited rising interest rates for Mortgages or support with a relief scheme
Rejected

What the petition asks
With the rising cost of living, it is unjust for mortgage companies to continuously increase interest rates and the government not support households. Monthly mortgages are becoming unmanageable which will greatly affect the economy.
Support Households with a relief scheme or enforce a cap on rates.
