Repeal the Online Safety Act and hold a comprehensive public consultation

Closed 41 signatures

What the petition asks

We want the Government to repeal the Online Safety Act and hold a comprehensive consultation with the people to ensure that consent of the public is present.
We want the Government to engage in a full consultation process with the public. This should include information leaflets to all people and public meetings where people are fully informed about what the Act contains and the consequences.

There seems to have been little engagement with the people about this Act, a lot has been talked about in the media, but we believe a full consultation needs to be held.
