Investigate council housing, the members of councils who are responsible.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Regulate council housing
Investigating whether council housing meets standards and criteria
Check whether work is being done by the council members
This is because I believe this issue impacts myself and many people in my local council and after loads of primary research I have come to the conclusion that it affects other members of the public across the nation
