Make it unlawful for companies to increase holiday prices for school holidays

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

Petition is circulating to allow for children days off in school time for a holiday. The government has responded stating there’s plenty of time to take your child on holiday in school holiday times. The prices are dramatically and unnecessarily increased by greedy companies in these times. Not ok
Make it unlawful and not allowed for these companies to raise prices in these times. Children won’t be taken out of school if this happens. Holidays are double the cost l. Holidays are something impotent for families to look forward to, to come together on, helps with family bonding and mental health. Happy parents have happy children and having a holiday most definitely can contribute to this. Please, something must be done.
