What the petition asks
We call on the Government to amend the Public Health Act 1936 to forbid any local authorities from charging for use of public lavatories or passing ownership to anybody which does not provide free public lavatories.
We believe that charges discriminate against the elderly, people with disabilities, and parents with young children and that charging for such valuable amenities is against the public's interests.
