E-Petitions -- making it easier to have your say

www.assemblywales.org

The National Assembly for Wales is relaunching its e-petitions system along with a new video explaining how the people of Wales can have their say on issues affecting them.

E-petitions are designed to be quick and easy way for people to gain support and take some of the legwork out of the traditional paper petitions. E-petitions can also be quickly shared and distributed across the internet to reach many more people over a wider area.

Petitions can be started and signed through the National Assembly for Wales website www.assemblywales.org. All petitions, both written and online, then go through a process to assess their eligibility before relevant ones are considered by the Assembly's Petitions Committee.

Previous issues considered by the Committee include banning single use plastic bags, saving a Cardiff pub and establishing a Wales-wide cycle network.
