What are petition debates?

Petition debates are ‘general’ debates which allow MPs from all parties to discuss the important issues raised by one or more petitions, and put their concerns to Government Ministers.

Petition debates don’t end with a vote to implement the request of a petition. This means that MPs will not vote on the issues raised in the petition at the end of the debate.

The Petitions Committee can only schedule debates on petitions to parliament started on petition.parliament.uk

An e-petition is an online petition to the House of Commons or the Government started by a member of the public on the e-petitions website.

E-petitions receive a Government response if they have 10,000 signatures or more. The Petitions Committee considers e-petitions for a debate if they have 100,000 signatures or more.

The Committee will only consider petitions which people have started on the UK Government and Parliament petitions website.

E-petitions stay open for six months, or until the end of the Parliament (whichever comes first), after which they are closed.

Find open, debated, and responded-to petitions, or submit your own, on the e-petitions website: https://petition.parliament.uk/
